Missing medals
I have discovered two medals for Vernard Howard, namely the 1939 - 1945 Star and the corresponding medal. I would like to return them to his rightful family members. They were left in a previously unopened tin by my grandfather, Phillip Harris from the 2/8 Independent Company. My e-mail is [email protected]
