webr55 Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 (edited) This is my first venture into British militaria. So the owner was involved in the Defense of Britain, fought in Africa and Burma. Anything else that could be read out of this bar? Edited November 11, 2017 by webr55

Guest Rick Research Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Missing the bar on the GSM in last place. THAT might have been a good clue for the odd Africa/Burma combination.
webr55 Posted December 30, 2007 Author Posted December 30, 2007 Aha! There seems to be a tiny hole on that ribbon.And can anything be said about the rank? Rather a corporal?
Ed_Haynes Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Rick is right about the missing clasp, but unattributable miniature bars that can easily be made up are hard to deal with. Could be anyone's bar, any rank, almost any regiment (though Africa/Burma is not a super-common combination).
leigh kitchen Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 As said, the GSM could have been for a few campaigns, Palestine 1945 - 48 could be a good contender, but who knows.......
