Description: | These medals and insignia, dating to World War II, belonged to Flight Officer Eyvind Tew of Finchley. Included are two medals for service during the War. These are the Defence Medal (with the orange, green, and black ribbon), awarded to many service personnel at this time, and the Second World War Medal (with the red, white, and blue ribbon), awarded to all those who served in the forces during the War. There is also a medallion issued by the Belgian Red Cross to blood donors. The medals are accompanied by the box in which they came, and the enclosed information.
