WW2 Defence and war medals ?could anybody tell me why only two medals
He also won three sports medals
One in 1938 winner western district depot staff relay race
He was also stationed in Bombay India in aug 1945

Any information from ledgers or possible photos from regimental magazines
Would be very much appreciated to help me with this

hi douglas i was aware of the staffordshire regimental association
forming a guard of honour outside rons house on the 4th june. ron was
one of there members as he had a connection with the staffords as ron
was a home guard i assume before he was called up to the cameronians

i shall be part of the guard honour with our light infantry association
branch standard as ron was also a member of our association

if any cameronians can get to be part of the guard of honour they are
assembling at 1030hrs in long lane Great Wyrley Walsall WS6 6AU

RIP Duty Done

Dear sir,

I have the privilege of taking the funeral for Thomas John Oldham this Wednesday. He was aged 103 and served in the Scottish Cameronian Regiment.

Do you know if the there is a Cameronians Regimental Collect I can use during his service? Tom talked often about his time of service although he would get upset about the number of pals he lost.

Hoping to hear form you soon.
