Hello just a 2 1/2" with the bronze disc that I found amongst my late fathers items along with his Army no. tag and medals service records etc.I am wondering what it is, perhaps you could throw some light on it. Stamped with BS31 then under, WARSPITE ,under 130805,and at bottom MC. is it perhaps from a kitbag? a navy friend a relative? Perhaps nothing. Dad had a huge amount of war stories to tell and only left after being wounded and discharged in 1945.He did leave some rather poor quality mini-"dictotape" type recordings which (when I can bear to listen to them) may have some war stories on and be be worth sending on, sadly I have only 2 regimental type photos from that war period as I believe the rest were all taken away by other family members.
