Thieves have stolen two sets of Second World War medals from a house belonging to an elderly couple in Brockweir in the Wye Valley.
The break-in happened between 9am and 1pm on Monday (July 27) while the owners were away from the house.
The thieves forced a side door and searched through cupboards and drawers before stealing the medals and cash.
The stolen medals include the Burma Star, the Defence Medal and the War Medal.
The couple were very upset by the theft, say Gloucestershire Police.
Anyone with information is asked to call the police on 101, quoting incident 194 of July 27.
