Ed_Haynes Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 We're talking 2003 here, not 1258 (the last time they invaded Iraq).Mongolia has sent a battalion-strength force (about 180 men, though rotated in and out since 2003) to Iraq for reconstruction purposes.They are awarded:1- The Mongolian medal for overseas/peacekeeping operations. (Also awarded for UN deployments.) 2- The Multinational Division Central South unofficial award.This came as a group, and it probably is one, but it will likely never give in to efforts at attribution.

Bryan Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 It seems that guy didn't care at all to keep those medals when we are talking about 3-4 years from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev in Deva Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 It seems that guy didn't care at all to keep those medals when we are talking about 3-4 years from now on.Hallo Soviet, British & US serving soldiers & veterans of Iraq and Afganistan are selling their service medals just as quick too At one time a medal really meant something to the receipiant, not so sure about the current awards Kevin in Deva.
