I'm hoping to locate my great great grandfather's medals. He was George Poole of the Quay, Ashleworth, Gloucestershire
As far as I know, his medals were:
- Queens South Africa Medal with Clasps "ORANGE FREE STATE" & "RELIEF OF KIMBERLEY".
- British War Medal 1914-20
- Victory Medal
He also received a Silver War Badge with the serial number: B.214507
He was wounded at Klip Drift on the 16th February 1900, his service number was 624.
He enlisted in the Gloucesters again in August 1914 but was discharged due to the war wound in October 1914. His service number was 2262.
He rejoined in the December of 1914, this time with the Midlands Reserve Battalion which became the 21st Garrison Battalion, The Rifle Brigade, and served in Egypt from 1916-18 as 142 RFN G Poole Rifle Brigade.
His post 1917 service number was 203505.
Any assistance rendered would of course be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
Daniel
