J. Marshall
British Army West Yorkshire Regiment
I am trying to return the First World War medal of Private J. Marshall, Service Number 11206 to his family. This missing war medal, a 1914-1918 Victory Medal awarded for service during the Great War is impressed with his name, service number and unit. Private J. Marshall served with the West Yorkshire Regiment and is believed to have served on Gallipoli during 1915. If that is correct, he may have been a member of the West Yorkshire 9th (Service) Battalion. Somehow, his Victory medal turned up for sale here in Australia. I am sure that they would like it returned in time for the Centenary of the Great War. I don't know his first name, but the medal is stamped J. Marshall. Can anyone please help?
