British Medals & Militaria

January 2023 Highlights 

Welcome to our British Medals & Militaria Highlights for DJanuary 2023

We start our January 2023 Highlights with  a Napoleonic period Naval General Service with the clasp for Martinique. The medal awarded to a member of HMS Neptune, Admiral Cochrane’s flagship. This beautiful untouched medal comes complete with its original Victorian silk ribbon, silver buckle suspender and leather Victorian fitted case.

Our second Highlight is a W.W.I military Medal to a gunner with the 69^th Siege Battery, 1 / 2 Sussex Borderers, Royal Garrison Artillery. An excellent example of this gallantry medal with scope for further research.

The third and last Highlight for January is a W.W.II Royal Navy medal grouping. Royal Navy Stoker, Charles Meadows, service career took him to Italy, Serlerno Landing, Egypt, and even Canada. Meadows was a Stoker aboard HMS Kingston (sunk 1942), and also aboard HMS Prometheus (used as a part of the Italian Salerno Landing). The documents within the group show service at least between 1942 and 1945. Photographs show he was also in Egypt , and Canada during 1942. An interesting group worthy of  in depth research.
