mazzie_1 Posted 29 November , 2018 Share Posted 29 November , 2018 Hi I have just been given the option of purchasing my Great-uncle's war medals (1914 star, Victory and BMW). They are inscribed as usual. The only thing that isn't there and I don't know where it is, is the Silver War Badge which he was awarded as he was wounded and discharged. My question is, would the Silver War Badge still be inscribed with the recipient's details? So if I obtained a replacement would I need to make sure it's inscribed? Thanks Darin.

PaddyO Posted 29 November , 2018 Share Posted 29 November , 2018 (edited) Hi Darin, it isn't named but has a serial number on the reverse which can be traced back to the relevant soldier via SWB rolls. Edited 29 November , 2018 by PaddyO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better start digging out that badge then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you leave the details punched into the rims of his medals, I will see if I can find you the number that will be on the back of his SWB.
