someone on ebay has a group of the same guys medals for £19000, I dont understand how people get to obtain such "famous" military characters?? The plaque I got was in an antique place and it was actually dumped hidden under the table not even displayed...

Looks like his possessions have been dispersed long after his passing. Makes you wonder how much the family got for those medals. Too bad no one in the family wanted to keep them, but that happens quite a lot.
