Another medal that came to me following the ACA story was The Defence Medal awarded to VX134588 William John Ford. There was very little in the online records about William, but I did find him on an Ancestry family tree. I sent a message off to the tree owner and soon received a reply telling me that she was the wife of William's nephew.
I'll send the medal to the family next week for William's great nephew to have with him for next years Anzac Day service.
Thanks to Des T who sent me the medal.The returned medal tally is now 1278.
Congratulations!
