You may find it a little harder for a reunion with his uniform when they go to auction. I wish you luck. Dave... You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. Best regards, Dave

Morning Dave

That is probably true, the IWM, Dublin and Derbyshire Territorial museums are interested.
Given the interest and the link with the Easter uprising I would not be surprised if they reach 5K.

I wrote to Andrew who has the medals, and I have attached photos he sent of Samuel's QSA medal you ask for.
