Hi

I am trying to get hold of my great uncles service record. I have written to historical disclosures three times but got no reply. Anyone got any tips? My relative was Cpl D Nash MM Worcesters and SAS.

Thanks

Stu

Many thanks - I can now call the Historical Disclosures mob and see what's going on!

Does anyone know if they still issue WW2 medals? I know that my relative never claimed his... Or is eBay the best way to go?

Bluenose, there are dealers out there who will make up sets of medals for you. Ebay tends to be looking for the highest prices.

A couple to get you started.
