Brian Wolfe Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Excellent find, well done. We live just 20 minutes East of Stratford (New Hamburg) and a CGSM form the Stratford Inf. Coy. always makes me sit up and take note. Congratulations. Regards Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Wolfe Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Hi Bill, Thanks for providing your first name, it makes it a lot more friendly not to mention easier to use first names. My best CGSM find a number of years ago was to a soldier from Perth Ontario, but not the Pert Regiment of course but the Perth I. Co.. The great thing about this medal is that the soldier was from my wife's home town of Perth and came with a photo of him in full uniform with him holding his rifle, probably a Snider Enfield.
