Hello List.

I have acquired through my late grandfathers personal belongings Leonard Thomas Knowles. He was born at Stanford le Hope Essex 1882 and died Gravesend Kent 1956. For the majority of his military career he spent in India and abroad. I have a silver medallion stated India at the top and Burma at the bottom It is shaped like a four leaf clover and in the inner circle is EX Soldiers Society 1911.
Any one who can give me some help please
