Tiger-pie Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Dug these out of the attic today and thought I would share them with you blokes. These were framed about thirty years ago when I was lad, the top medals being to my Uncle Ken Johns and the bottom set to my Uncle Aubrey Rickard. There is an extra 39-45 Star that is original, but un-named. No-one could tell me who it belonged to, but it was in a cigarette tin with Ken's medals. Regards;Johnsy
Tiger-pie Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 I will in the short term have these mounted in properly with unit badges, patches and photos. I will then be able to display them without feeling embarrassed at my school-boy effort of framing medals. Regards;Johnsy
Mike Dwyer Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Very nice, Johnsy! I wish I knew all of the medals my father received for WW2 and Korea. My brother has all of his stuff and he's hard to get any information from.

Regards;JohnsyJohnsy,I applaude your efforts made to preserve and display the medals of your family!!! I did the same for my Dad's medals a few years ago. They all served with Honor and to display their medals is the ultimate tribute to their service. Doc
