Insp43519 Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Hi, I am researching a man who served in the L.C.C.M.F.B. which then became the London Fire Brigade and have obtained a copy of his service record. It states he was entitled to the following medals: 1) 1897 Jubilee medal 2) 1902 Coronation medal 3) 1911 Coronation medal 4) Long Service medal (Awarded on 16/07/1904) I know his 1911 medal is a London Fire Brigade version, can anyone tell me did they release a Fire Brigade version of the 1897 Jubilee and 1902 Coronation medals? If so does anyone have any images please? Also does anyone know what the Fire Brigade Long Service medal looked like in 1904 and would it have been named or numbered? Thanks, Jon
David B 1812 Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 What is the "M" in L.C.C.M.F.B. please - for my abbreviation collection........ It is probably very obvious.................. Thanks,

paul wood Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 LCCMFB received a 1902, the 1897 was issued to the metropolitan fire brigade. Alas I have no images. Paul
