Memorabilia of Patrick Drury | Kings Liverpool Regiment

My grand uncle, Patrick Drury, was probably from the Old Watergate area of Limerick, Ireland. I don't know anything about his life before the War. He joined the King's Liverpool Regiment (Private No. 9238). The photograph on the postcard here is probably of Patrick though it may be his brother Joseph (Joseph is the name given on the back). Patrick died during the War, though we don't know how. My father only spoke about this once. The postcard has Joseph Drury, Royal Munster Fusiliers, ? II Battalion, Limburg (?), Germany. This could still relate to Patrick if the regiment was decimated as people were moved to new regiments when this happened. || (1) Document accompanying the 1914-15 Star medal; (2) Document accompanying the Victory medal;(3) Medals: 1914-15 Star medal & Victory medal; (4) Postcard with photograph possibly of Patrick Drury; (5) Memorial scroll
