War veteran anxious for stolen medals

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 26 Februari 2014 | 11.25

A THIEF who stole eight service medals from an elderly World War II veteran in Canberra is being asked by police to do the right thing and return them.

The 92-year-old man was out for two hours on Monday afternoon when someone stole the medals from his Mawson home.

They include the National Medal, the Australian Service Medal (1939 - 1945), War Medal (1939 - 1945), the Pacific Star, 1939-1945 Star and the Defence Medal.

Police Sergeant Daryl Neil says the medals are of no significant monetary value but the veteran is anxious for their return.

"We would appeal to those responsible to show some compassion ... and help us get these medals back to their rightful owner," Sgt Neit said.

"With Anzac Day celebrations coming up, there's an even greater level of importance attached to recovering these medals."
