Found out my Great Uncle got rid of the medals and other WW1 stuff as he was fed up of the children playing with them such as shame as was not even his relation!!!

The medals may still be out there...try www.medaltracker.com
One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.

The idea was to post them as "missing," they are probably in the hands of a collector somewhere...

I still have guilt trips about the ones I collected when I was a young child, and should post them here as well as on medaltracker... :-\ :-\ :-[
