    EXHIBIT "D"

    Well ... this is my Commonwealth / Canadian Section. Some of these pieces are pretty dear to me as you will see;

    1. The Campaign Stars. You will notice that the Air Crew Europe Star is missing ... it's below. I figured it would be more suitable with it's own grouping.

    *Notables on this first picture:

    a) The 1939-1945 Star belonged to the Wife's Grandfather KIA near Caen July 19, 1944 Pte. W. Grant M11681
    b) The Africa Star is named to M12725 - E. Peters
    c) 1914-15 Star is named to S-47, CPL. C. WYNNE, RAMC
    d) 1914-1918 War Medal named to 5404 PTE.M.B.MOORE.E.YORK.R.
    e) WW1 Victory Medal named to DM2 - 138484 PTE. R.B.SWAILES A.S.C.




    2. 1914 Star that was framed. Named to 11125, PTE. S. RIDING, S.WALES BORD.




    3. In this next group, of special note:

    a) The Mother's Cross belonged to my Wife's Grandmother (for her husband) named to Pte. W. Grant M11681KIA France July 19, 1944.
    b) The India General Service Medal named to 902 DVR BHAJAN SINGH 28-MT.BY.

    4. The final complete Grouping belonged to Gordon Winston Knupp KIA 05/09/1944
    a) He was KIA'd over Begium on May 09, 1944. This is where the Air Crew Europe Star is presented along with issue box and tissue. His War Medal was also part of the group.

    There is a War Graves document printed out that I found on the site that details where is is buried and where the action took place that he died.

    He was born in Barry, Ontario.


    Hope you enjoyed this
