Wound Badge

[Bob2399]

I have the MIC sheet for both of these men and I believe that they MUST be 2 different men. I tried to send it to you but the file is too big for Rootschat. I also have the entry on the medal roll but that is too big also. I'll cut them down and send in a couple of mins
Wait out

I have lost the complete MIC  that I paid for last night, D'Oh!

Hi Can anyone tell me what the marking is on this MIC up near the regimental title on the top left. It is an X with a dot is each of the cross bits
Thanks
Bob

Bob, there is probably another cross next to a rank on the card, i am pretty sure he had  different regiments on his medals, so the cross next to the rank(if there is one) is the medal he earned with that regiment, or it may be next to a medal to indicate the same.

THANKS! If you knew how long I have been trying to find that out and it is so simple when explained Yippee

Just a small point. It is the Silver War Badge and not Wound Badge. The badge was also issued for discharge on medical grounds. There were cases of men being discharged as unfit without ever leaving the UK and these men only received a SWB.
