Default My Great Grandfather's WWI collection

My great grandfather served in the Canadian military in WWI. He was wounded at La Somme in 1916 and died as a result of those wounds in 1918 back in Canada. While he was in Europe, he collected badges and flashes from British and Canadian bothers in arms. My great grandmother left me the collection in 1986 when she passed. There are parts of the collection I will never sell but some I certainly will. I will post several pictures of his awards and some with the collection.

Any help identifying those I haven't labeled or correcting me on those that I have would be appreciated. I will also gladly post individual front and back photos of any items anyone want to see closer to identify or discuss. Thank you all.

I will start with his awards...
