Thank you very much, Kevin! Please check your PM - I've sent you a message :rolleyes:

Awards:

1. Russian Empire. Cross of St.George.

2. Romania. Medalia “Avântul Ţării”

3. Romania. Crucea Comemorativă a Războiului 1916-1918

4. Unknown British medal - George V era

5. Romania. Medalia “Virtutea Militară”

Could you please help with the identification of the British medal? Any ideas where that veteran could have served judging from the Russian and British awards?

Here's an interesting portrait of a WW1 Romanian veteran decorated with two foreign awards - Russian and British.

Thanks, Tony!
