WW1 Canadian CEF Medal Group Pair Full Size 339280 DVR A. Menzies CFA

This is a First World War Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) full-size medal pair awarded to Driver A. Menzies, service number 339280, of the Canadian Field Artillery (CFA). The set consists of two original British campaign medals: the British War Medal and the Victory Medal, both bearing Menzies’ details impressed on their rims. The medals are suspended from period-correct ribbons. Driver A. Menzies served in the Canadian Field Artillery, a branch responsible for providing artillery support to Canadian and Allied forces during the First World War. The British War Medal was awarded to service personnel who saw active service between 1914 and 1920, while the Victory Medal recognized those who entered a theatre of war during the conflict. This paired group reflects the standard recognition for many Canadian soldiers who participated in overseas operations during the Great War. The medals remain significant artifacts of Canadian military history.
