UNBELIEVABLE! I'VE GOT ANOTHER CORNOCK WORLD WAR 1 MEDAL BACK

[@byamrcn]

Thank you Sara and Pete, the world needs more people like you.

[@krisshutler]

I agree with your comment

[@neiljohnson3406]

What a story, what a bit of history, there is some genuinely nice and good people left,and this lady falls into that category, good on her

[@TheLawnmowerman123]

Brilliant video there is more good people then bad they just don’t get the publicity lovely to see your Dad

[@cheechU38K]

I shed tears watching 😢 fingers crossed all three medals get back together 🙏🏻🤞🏻

[@nickhealey3388]

Family history ❤ what that man went through and saw and that kind lady brought it back to where he returned from war. 🙏 I hope you find the third medal , priceless history that you can pass to your sons. Nice seeing your dad as well❤

[@eng9040]

Not ashamed to say this made me cry, with both happiness for you and my memories. My great grandfather still lies at Gallipoli killed July 1915 aged 38yrs. He faked his age as the recruitment cut off was 35yrs old. Mentioned on the Helles memorial Royal Scots Fusiller. x

[@erickenyon4457]

Fantastic story….come on medal 3..good hunting…

[@deanwright7273]

My grandads (ww2 ) my dads (Iraq both wars and Afghanistan ) and mine from (Afghanistan) service medals are all safely locked away in my house so pleased to have them all

[@JDseller1]

Richard I am so happy for you!!!! Family history means a lot to many people. I am also am holding on to many artifacts of my families' past so that the future generations of my family can see/relate to their history. You have had a tough year, may this lighten your life up some.

[@philmanray3903]

The metal you just got was the Mons star was given to people who enlisted in 1914 in August to November or December it is on the front of the medal He was in B. E. F Mons was the first battle of the war in Belgium my Grandad was from Oxford and he did the same he was in ASC.

[@jimginn7163]

Had a bit of dust in my eyes after watching Richard. Ihad my Grandfathers WW1 medals, my dads WW2 and his brothers, sadly over the years with moving they got lost. Lovely people those 2 that returned your Grandads medal.👍

[@stephwoodhouse3223]

An absolutely incredible story ! Moved to tears for you Rich and so very delighted this has come to pass for you and the family.

[@markyasaitis6050]

What a fantastic gesture to return hiss medal to you. My Grandfather also served in Europe during WW1 and fought in the battle at the Mause Argonne. Unfortunately, he died long before I was born, and he too never spoke about his time during the war. I was so touched by this video Richard, thank you for sharing.

[@andrewdalziel4006]

What a fantastic story. Not only have you got the medal back where it belongs, it came via someone who is so nice and wanted to do the right thing and return it to you. It does show that there are some thoroughly decent people around.

[@philyew3617]

Nice to hear there are still people who care about the past. Best of luck with the search for the last one Richard.

[@pauljones2633]

A perfect example of human kindness. So overwhelming happy you were able to get this medal back. What a wonderful couple to have done this for you. It gives us all hope!

[@matthewpayne42]

Reminds me of the yellow pages advert, J.R. Hartley. The funky farmer, bringing history alive.

[@PepeSnow]

Absolutely fantastic news 🎉 so glad you have a bit of your family history back. ❤

[@PepeSnow]

Going to keep my eyes out for number 3 , i think all here will 😊

[@brentsmith2384]

Still a lot of good people out there.the 3rd medal(still missing),is a WW1 victory medal

[@DanielPurvis-q7m]

Hi Richard, what a lovely story , my brother served in the royal artillery and when I was younger I used to collect old bottles and used to go digging for them in old dumps and hedges one day i dug up an old royal artillery cap badge amazingly it was in good condition I gave it to my brother and although there was no connection to him other than it being an artillery badge it’s a treasured possession and probably one of the best gifts I could have given him so I understand the importance and emotion of finding that war medal especially as you have such a connection with it.

[@davetaylor4741]

Amazing. And what a lovely gesture to even hand deliver it to you. I can understand where you are coming from with this. My Grandfather was in the WW1. I don't even know where he served. I have tried to look up his war record but couldn't find him. I believe a lot of the WW1 records were destroyed. So there are a lot of gaps. My Grandad died when I was eight or nine. But I remember sitting there with his medals. And also his horse brasses. When I was a kid. It would have been nice to have kept them in the family. Unfortunately in the very last part of his life Grandad succumbed to dementia of some sort. He wasn't fully aware of what he was doing. And one day some chancer dealer rocked up when nobody else was around. And offered to buy a load of items off him. No doubt for a song. When my mum got home a lot had gone never to be seen again. Including the medals and the horse brasses. To this day wouldn't have a clue what happened to them. And that was back in about 1969. As you say to most people they have historical interest. But to the family concerned a whole lot more. Miracles can happen. Who knows the third might yet appear. Two is a good start.

[@michaelstaunton1632]

What an amazing story about those medals 🏅 such a lovely lady indeed to bring the 2nd one to you . Fair play 👍👍

[@msoddsoxsox974]

Great story, and a lovely legacy for your boys.

[@jonwright7394]

Thats amazing, there are some really great people out there.

[@colmanlong1032]

What a wonderful piece of history.

[@bigale4658]

What a lovely couple family items are priceless good luck finding number 3

[@1carld]

I’m so glad you took the time to share this with us. I actually had a tear in my eye when you got the 2nd one back from that young lady. It’s blows my mind that there are still people in this world that would go out of the way for others. Thanks for sharing

[@roberthiggins6401]

Both those stories are so cool Richard. Made me cry.

[@richardwatts220]

Very lucky to get that medal back Richard. My grandfather's brother was not so lucky, died on the somme July 16 1916. As a farmer my grandfather was in reserved occupation.

[@johnhughes2113]

Thank you for sharing such an emotional day in your life, what a lovely couple to have given back the medal, as you say to the HOUSE in where it belongs, you wern’t the only one in tears.

[@lindaarmstrongjackman9788]

Thanks for sharing this Richard. We will never understand what those enlisted men went through. My Grandad was gassed in WW1, but was fortunate to make it home. He also served as an army instructor in WWII. I assume one of my cousins has his medals.

[@ianwoodhams6886]

Such a lovely story to wake up to, absolutely brilliant. Don’t mind admitting I shed a tear or two on your behalf. Things like that just get my eyes leaking.

[@srm61980]

You're definitely not alone in that - I might have shed a few tears as well :)

[@markh5433]

And me🥲 let’s hope that Third medal turns up🙏🙏

[@Sooty]

Wonderful ancestral story. Keep history alive, especially when it's your ancestors. Well done to the lady donating the medal to you to you and travelling from Leominster to give it to you 🎉

[@johnmushko7555]

Hell of a story! 😊

[@nicholaspower4621]

I know how you feel Richard! I love all this genealogy stuff. I traced a great aunt who was a nurse in New York. I now have her 2 rare nursing medals! I like you brought her story back to the family! Well done!!

[@fredharrowven1040]

Good morning Richard, What a wonderful story that is one in a million having been in the Army myself I can understand how you must feel, What luck 🍀 you must have sadly my dad was a prisoner of war for 3 and half years so I can understand how you feel, I hope you find the last one all the very best to you and god bless you and your family.👍👍❤️

[@yant8777]
