I very much doubt if you will be able to get the medals that your parents should have received for their services in WW2. Do you know which branch they served? And do you have any other details, like which medals? |

Having got these details, particularly their Army Numbers, is great and I would suggest that you now apply for "Proofs of Service". These are available free-of-charge from the Army Personnel Centre whose email address is: apcsec@btconnect.com Let them have all the details and your postal address. Experience shows that the APC does not acknowledge emails and it could be several weeks before the Certificates arrive, by snail mail. Even if you are unable to obtain their medals (which I very much doubt) the Proofs of Service could be valuable mementos. Best Wishes Bryan |

Hi Geoffh, My grandad just sent off for his WWII medals about a month ago - following much pestering from my brother. I don't know any details though, but I'll ask him next time I see him - Sunday Rocky |
