A widow has been left heartbroken after burglars stole campaign medals awarded to her war-hero husband for his daring bombing exploits during the Second World War.
Squadron Leader John Gardener carried out 90 raids over France and Germany in the build-up to D-Day.
His medals were among a number of items, including £3,000 of jewellery and £500 cash, stolen from the family home in Penn, which was ransacked in the break-in.
Video journalist Victoria Hoe went to meet Doris at her home.
