A full size, WW1 Silver Memorial Cross, British War and Victory Medal to 192682 Private George Alvin Myers of the 42nd Infantry Battalion.
George is buried at OAKVILLE (ST. JUDE'S) CEMETERY, Ontario, Canada.
He passed away due to Tuberculosis at home, age 20 on the 15th of Dec 1919 but had lost a leg due to action at Vimy Ridge.
His medals are in good, uncleaned condition, but there is no ribbon with his Memorial Cross. His British War and Victory medals come with a short length of replacement ribbon.
I have attached an extensive write-up taken from the Canadian Virtual Memorial website, which can also be found here, along with his grave stone.
