Medals to Trumpeters from the Collection of Roderick Cassidy Four: Private H. G. Evans, Royal Tank Corps, late Trumpeter, 9th Lancers 1914 Star, with (copy) clasp (3167 Tptr., 9/Lrs.); British War and Victory Medals (L-3167 Pte., 9-Lrs.); Army L.S. & G.C., G.V.R., 3rd issue, Regular Army (312000 Pte., R.T.C.), the Great War awards heavily polished, thus fair to fine, the last about very fine or better (4) £250-300 Footnote Henry G. Evans first entered the French theatre of war on 15 August 1914, and is listed in the Glasgow Herald as having been wounded sometime prior to the 23rd of the following month. The chances are, therefore, that he became a casualty during one of the regiment’s famous charges, either that at Quievrain on 24 August, or that at Moncel on 7 September. Either way, official records further confirm that he was subsequently taken P.O.W.
