    Pictures of my Grandfather's WWI uniform, he fought in Northern Russia against the Bolsheviks from Sept 1918 thru June 1919. I have many letters and other items of his. The men that were in Russia called themselves "The Polar Bear's"

      It says "Defensive Sector", this is a replacement medal, the original was lost in a fire.
      The original said "Russia".
      The red, white and blue ribbon medal is a British "Military Medal" for bravery.

      Great documented North Russia group!

      The British award is unusual. I love the documentation.

      If I was you, I'd get a correct "Russia" clasp to replace what you have.

      Thanks for sharing your Family Hero!
