Medal Emblem ?
« on: Thursday 10 August 23 11:48 BST (UK) »
His Card doesn't show 1914/15 Star Award but it was issued
He also was awarded MM
However am Baffled to Medal Card notes reference to "Emblem" Award
Never seen that before.
What does it refer to please?

"Emblems

The reference “EM” or “Emb” means that the man was mentioned in despatches."
