This is a slightly spooky story.
A friend of my late Dad, spotted that my Dad's long service medals that he was awarded in the Police in Zimbabwe (or Rhodesia as it was then) are for sale on an auction site in South Africa. They were stolen it seems in a burglary years ago when my parents lived in Harare.
What is very spooky is that his friend (who lives in the UK) first spotted them while searching online, remembered my Dad's old regimental number and then focund me to tell me.
This feels all very spooky that they have turned up and through the internet have become aware of them. It was quite a shock as on one of the Photos in the auction I can see my Dad's initials and name and Mum confirmed his regimental number.
The power of the internet I guess....
