WW1 Canadian CEF Medal Group Pair 3135277 G. Ferguson Canadian Railway Troops

This WW1 Canadian CEF Medal Group Pair is attributed to Private G. Ferguson, service number 3135277, who served with the Canadian Railway Troops. The group consists of two original campaign medals: the British War Medal and the Victory Medal, both correctly named to “3135277 PTE. G. FERGUSON C.RY. T.” The Canadian Railway Troops played a critical logistical role in the First World War, specializing in the construction and repair of railway lines essential for moving troops and supplies. The medals reflect Ferguson’s service and participation in overseas operations as part of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. Each medal is struck in the standard design and composition for the respective award and features period naming on the edge. The set provides a representative example of medals awarded to Canadian railway personnel for their wartime contributions during 1914–1918 and offers insight into the broader logistical efforts undertaken by Canadian forces in WW1.
