WW1 BWM to Edith M Archer VAD Served Salonika

A WW1 British war medal correctly named to Edith Maud Archer of the Voluntary Detachment.
Edith Archer was born in 1887 and served with the British Red Cross Society No 18 Norfolk Voluntary Aid Detachment as a Ward Orderly. She served with the 61st General Military Hospital in Hortajkoi, Salonika from June 1918. This was a base hospital just northeast of Thessaloniki. It saw its fair share of allied wounded and the obvious sickness with dogged the campaign but in September 1918, the influenza epidemic began which raged for three months and filled three-quarters of the local cemetery. Edith was still serving at this hospital in May 1919. It looks like Edith went on to serve with the BRC well after the war. She is entitled to a British war and victory medal pair along with any red cross medals she may have earnt. This medal is in excellent original condition and comes with copies of her BRC service index card and Medal index card.
