Victory Medal awarded to J. Gregson
This medal was issued to all those who had already received the 1914 or 1914-1915 Stars and most of those who had the British War Medal. An estimated 6 million were produced. Gregson served in nine hospitals, including St John Ambulance Hospital Étaples in 1914-1915. He was invalided to England in 1915.
