Forgive the question but is it a medallion or a medal, as in campaign medal for the Great War?

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,

Hi

No problem for the question. It is the Memorial Death Plaque of WW1.

Regards

Then I stick with 11365 Pte George Shannon 2nd Worcesters whose medal card incorrectly shows his date of death as 9 9 19 when the medal roll for the 1914 Star has 9 Sep 1914. Caveat - this is based only on the "residence Cape Town".   I should correct my earlier post - he is buried in Boitron Churchyard, CWGC date also 9 Sep 14.
