My Grandfathers medals from the Boer and WW1 wars went missing some 30 years ago.
I would love to buy them back . They include clasps for relief of Ladysmith etc and also an Oak Leaf.
A Long shot , I know!

He was in the Royal Welsh Fusiliers, Name Charles Miles

Now there is an interesting man, I can well understand why you want his medals, I also wonder how they were lost in the first place.

Thank you , I never knew him but is family loved him dearly and was a kind man very involved with the ROAB.
The medals vanished around the time of a party I had in the 70s.
I would buy them back no questions asked.
I have his mentioned in despatches signed by Winston Churchill, some paperwork and a photo.
Would love to get some more stuff for my descendants.
Cheers

That was some party John!!

Mind you the 70's were known for that sort of thing (the parties I mean..)

Hope you come right.

Guys

Our family also fell prey to something like this, my wifes uncle lent his WW2 BEM + group of 6 and an Italian Officers sword to a "friend", who was going to a fancy dress party.......he never returned them!
