The Anzac Medallion (1965) was awarded to surviving members of the Australian and New Zealand forces who served at Gallipoli during the campaign. This example was posthumously awarded to an 8/AIF soldier who died later at Ypres in 1917.

Today’s piece from the GWH Collection is the Wolseley Sun Helmet which belonged to 753 Cpl William Parry of 1/5th Royal Welsh Fusiliers.
A pre-war Territorial, he joined the 1/5th after Gallipoli and were in Egypt.
He was wounded in Palestine but managed to keep his Wolseley.
