Although not a military medal, it was issued by the Dunkirk Authorities, all those who were involved in the evacuation could apply for this medal, and their names listed in a Book of Gold, this book is supposed to be kept in France, I am trying located it, can anyone confirm where it is kept. Regards Les Glindon
Hi, could any one help me to find out if my grandad who was with 9HLI in Cherbourg is Entitled To the medal thanks
Hi Rock and welcome to the forum. Your first port of call should be his Service Records. They will tell you if he was in France during 1940 and for how long. Army Personnel Centre - British Army Website Regards Andy
