Default Which One?

Greg,

Any further clues might help in the search for what you are looking for. Which of The Great War service medals are you taking this information from, and from which country was it issued? Does your friend know anything of his Grandfather's service? Every little piece helps.

Cheers,
Dan.

Default Medallion

The item in question is not a medal -it is a sort of medallion which may have simply been made up as a one off -it is WW1 and indicates the unit in question served with the British Expeditionary Force BEF
