We have access to all necessary resources for the research of medals, and their recipients' careers and backgrounds. The story surrounding a group of medals can add importance and sometimes great significance in the eyes of military collectors. Any personal items, photographs or documents you can supply along with medals will add flavour to a group, and should generate even further interest with medal enthusiasts.
