Does anyone know what happened to WW1 campaign medals which were unclaimed?
I wrote to the Ministry of Defence Medal Office, RAF Innsworth, Gloucester, earlier this year about trying to locate two WW1 medals of a relative, which I know were unclaimed (this is documented on his medals' certificate, along with a reference number).
The reply I received from RAF Innsworth was that they no longer had any unclaimed WW1 medals, and gave no explanation as to where the medals would have gone. Any clues would be appreciated (bar writing to them again).
