A WW1 / WW2 medal group, named to Lieutenant W.G.Hurt. To include: the British War Medal, Victory Medal, Defence Medal, and the 1939-45 War Medal, and Middlesex Regiment Public Works Pioneer Battalion cap badge (this likely a later a re strike). The medals are mounted on a pin bar for wear.

He his further noted as being a Lieutenant on the General List, and later a Captain. His M.I.C states that he is ‘ineligible for SWB’ which would indicate he suffered injury while on active service, but couldn’t claim the badge. It also notes that he applied for the 1915 star, but there is no evidence that this was granted. Condition: good. Some toning to the medals from age. Medal ribbons would appear to be original to the era.

Lot 299
A Korean War pair of medals awarded to 22412005 Pte A. Richardson Glosters, informally known as the ‘Glorius Glosters’ for their famous action at the Imjin River during the Korean War. To include: the Korea 1950-53 medal, officially named as above, plus the United Nations Korea Medal. Notes: according to information supplied by the Gloucestershire Regimental Museum, Pte Richardson does not appear on on rolls relating to soldiers who fought in the Battle of Imjin River, nor does he appear in the roll of POW’s compiled by Peter Gaston. This would suggest that he could of been part of a draft of reinforcements to replace men who were killed during the battle or those that were taken prisoner. Also included are a pair of cloth Gloucestershire shoulder titles, 2 white metal cap badges, one with loops and one with slider, 2 brass collar badges, and a spare United Nations Korea Medal medal ribbon, 2 First Field Dressing kits (one dated 1940 and one dated 1945). Plus 5 scarce Korean propaganda leaflets, likely air dropped over occupied areas, some period publications, NAAFI tokens and period banknotes. All of the paper ephemera was collected by Pte Richardson during his service in the Korean War. Please note: not all the paper ephemera and banknotes are shown in the images. Condition: generally good. Both medals, shoulder titles and badges are in good condition. The outside cover of the field dressings show heavy wear and tear. The paper items show varying degrees of wear - the propaganda leaflets have some creases and what appears to be water staining in places, understandable given they were likely picked up off the ground. Some of the locally printed army newsletters are brown and brittle with age. The banknotes all appear to have much wear and use.
