World War One / Re: 2nd Bn Munster Fusiliers during WW1

Hello John,
Tommy Hyde and his son Dave here. We hope you are keeping well!
We're wondering if you were able to find out anything about Grandad Tom? We have some of his medals (campaign medals only), his bronze medallion, a photograph of him receiving a medal, a photograph of his gravestone and a copy of one of his citations and are interested to know if you have anything else. Our plan is to create a display box with the items that we have, and it would just be nice to know if some of his other awards/belongings are safe with you or another member of the family. On a recent trip to the UK we enquired at a military memorabilia shop about getting replica copies of the DCM and MM but were told that they would be 600 - 800 pounds each!
Tom and Janet are in Canada at the moment visiting with Dave's family but will be back home this coming Friday (January 25th) and would love to catch up with you.
Hoping to hear from you soon, best wishes,
Tom & Dave Hyde
