Kev in Deva Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 IMHO its a Polish Medal, the ribbon colours are those of Poland, but I have nothing official to back it up, any details on the rear? Kevin in Deva. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul wood Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 Thanks Kevin, I have trawled the Polish sites but without any joy.I will see if anything is on the reverse.Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 British, French, Polish and three Belgian medals. Quite a collection. I think perhaps for someone who helped Allied pilots escaping to freedom?? Never saw the Polish medal though. Herman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utopis Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) Hi Paul, yes it's Polish. Exile Government, Odznaka pamiatkowa POW, or in English Memorial badge of POW. Pow stands for Polska Organizacja Wojskowa - "Polish Military Organization". Post WWII, obviously. Edited March 20, 2014 by utopis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
