Does this look right for the sort of thing given as a tribute medal? It should be very common in Wakefield as there must of been thousands of servicemen and women from there awarded this medal?

This could well be a tribute medal but i do not think it is connected to the Leeds pals, it would have had a version of the Leeds coat of arms on it. Looking at the medal there is no real statement that the badge is military.
