trenchtrotter Posted 14 February , 2014 Share Posted 14 February , 2014 I recently returned a set of medals to a relative who had never seen them before. I had been their custodian for nearly 20 years. This forum was the link that put us in touch. I had listed them on Museumtoms classic thread and the relative googled etc and the rest is history. Liz in Eastbournes thread re the 21 KRR also helped. It can happen. TT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
