An original Korean War Medal 1950-53 and U.N. Korea medal 1950-54 awarded to a soldier who served with the Gloucestershire Regiment.

The medal is correctly named as follows

22394571  PTE.  G.  BROWN  GLOSTERS

The U.N. Korea medal is unnamed as issued.

The Gloucestershire Regiment were famous for holding out for three nights against overwhelming odds during the Battle of the Imjin River.  

The stand, described by the commander of the United Nations forces in Korea at the time as "the most outstanding example of unit bravery in modern war", prevented the encirclement of other United Nations forces, for which the regiment was awarded the Presidential Unit Citation and earned the nickname The Glorious Glosters.
