Pte. James "Snowy" Brown
British Army 8th Btn Royal Scots Fusiliers
from:Dailly
My grandfather, James(Snowy) Brown enlisted when he was very young, some say at sixteen. He received the three medals better known as Pip Squeak and Wilfred. I have just inherited two of the three medals,
(Squeak and Wilfred). The other is lost and may never be found. Although these medals have no financial value I treasure them and think how brave these young men must have been to face such horror at such a young age -God only knows what they went through. I can only imagine the shock and horrors that these men saw and lived. I can only say that I am indeed glad that it wasn't me.
