Gents:

Any experts out there with regard to WW 1 medals? I recently came into posession of three medals that belonged to my grandfather. All are engraved with his service # and name. All I know that he was at Vimy and fought with the 2nd Canadian Division (Infantry).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Al Davis

Hi Al,

Here is a link to the Veterans Affairs website. It has good info on the medals.
