they are from belgium

ww1 awards - the medal is the Yser medal and the cross (war cross - but i'm not sure)

for documentating the other side of the trench it is really interesting to get more knowledge about those as well!

hope some others can put in more!

I'll bet the from the ribbon pattern that the one on the left is the Belgian Croix de Guerre with Palm. I have no clue for the one on the right.

Hello Andy,

Here's a bit about the Croix de Guerre http://www.firstworldwar.com/atoz/croixdeguerre_b.htm

The ribbon looks slightly different though.
