Member Since: September 2006 Posts: 2 Send Message	My grandad Arnold Barton fought in France in WW1 where he was awarded the D.C.M. I have traced all to do with the medal, however the medal has been missing for a very long time. He was given a purse of money and also a wrist watch which assume would not be common in those day. Also of course an illuminated address. Can anyone advice how I might search for the missing medal. specific sites and so on. Thank you Beryl Lee
