Kenneth Burrows was born at Wycombe, Buckinghamshire on 3 August 1925, and attested for the Coldstream Guards in August 1942. He subsequently transferred to the Scots Guards, and on 15 August 1947 the Bucks Free Press reported, under the heading ‘Soldier’s action earns praise’ that ‘Guardsman Kenneth Burrows was praised by the coroner for his attempts to save life in a fire near Aylesbury.’ Transferring to the Army Reserve, he was recalled to the Colours on the outbreak of the Korean War and posted to the Gloucestershire Regiment, serving with them in Korea. He died in Worthing, West Sussex, in 2006.
729 Korea 1950-53, 1st issue (6287333 Pte. E. Brown. Glosters.) extremely fine £400-500
E. Brown attested for the East Kent Regiment in March 1939, and experienced pre-War service with them. He served in Korea with the Gloucestershire Regiment, attached to the Royal Ulster Rifles, and was wounded at Tokchon, during the battle of the Imjin River, on 25 April 1951 (The Times casualty list dated 2 May 1951 reports that L/Cpl E. Brown of the Glosters attached to the R.U.R. had been wounded; and the War Diary for the Imjin period held in the R.U.R. archives records that ‘6287333 Brown L/Cpl E’ was wounded on 25 April 1951 at Tokchon- the regimental number being the same on the medal as per war diary means that this is undoubtedly the same man). The Tokchon crossroads was four miles down the road from the 29th Brigade HQ and beyond that lay the Imjin battle locations of the Royal Ulster Rifles, the Gloucestershire Regiment, and the Northumberland Fusiliers. On the afternoon of 25 April the remnants of the brigade were ordered to occupy a blocking position on the road south to Uijongbu. By the time the crossroads were reached the R.U.R. comprised only 14 Officers and 240 men and, as darkness fell, began to dig in with such tools that were available, and were fed for the first time that day. This position was held until 23:30 hours when the brigade were relieved by a reserve Regiment. The Battalion, utterly weary, marched a further six or seven miles until at last transport picked them up and carried them south through the night to Yongdongpo, on the south bank of the River Han.
730 Korea 1950-53, Canadian issue, silver (SC-116021 G. Francoeur) nearly extremely fine £140-£180
Gaston Francoeur was born in Casselman, Ontario, on 24 June 1922, and enlisted into the Canadian Army on 18 June 1943.

Rejoining on 18 April 1951, he served in the 1st Battalion, Royal 22nd Regiment from 14 January 1952, was promoted Lance Corporal on 15 February 1952, and proceeded to the Far East for service in Korea on 9 April 1952. He was killed in action on the morning of 16 August 1952 by a shell splinter to the head, and is buried in the United Nations Military Cemetery, Tanggok, Korea.
