Have you tried clicking on Jeffrey's name and sending him a private message? |

This Silver War Badge Roll record gives the fact that he served overseas and also that he was discharged because of wounds:- |

Why 2 Service numbers but only 1 regiment? |

Thank you both so much for your time and for all the information and links you have passed on. A little of the info I already knew but thanks to you both I will now be spending time doing more research. Early days but I am really hoping Jeffrey will read my message and I could maybe have a photo of the tag. |

Thought you all would be really pleased to know I got a reply from Jeffrey a few days after my post, He will be in contact with the finder of the tag. I have sent him a photograph of Granddad in his uniform before going off to war so the person will now be united with the tag for the finder. |
