1914-15 trio/SWB (3882 Pte H. Thorpe, Sea. Highrs)

Group of four to Private Harry Thorpe, Seaforth Highlanders: 1914-15 Star (3882 Pte H. Thorpe, Sea. Highrs); British War Medal; Victory Medal (3882 Pte H. Thorpe, Sea. Highrs); Silver War Badge, numbered “462775”;

Private Thorpe’s first Medal Index Card (as “Thorp”) verifies the 1914-15 Star and references a second MIC; his second Medal Index Card (as “Thorpe”) verifies the pair (and notes later service in the Labor Corps); the Silver War Badge roll confirms his entitlement for wounds. Note the surname spelling difference on the Star, explained by the differing Medal Index Cards.
