alf mcm Posted 10 March , 2010 Share Posted 10 March , 2010 Hello Dan, Welcome to the Forum. I can't help you with the medal, but did you know that Thomas's Army pension records are available on Ancestry. These show he enlisted on 5th June, 1906, and left the Army on 14th February, 1919. He was a career soldier. He also served in France and Belgium, so his medal record card will also be on Ancestry. Regards. Alf McM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
