    1. Have tried Index cards but no joy.. Guess your eyesight is great as can't see medal ribbon I know it's not Black Watch just that cap badge same shape.
    2. Hi Graham, Thanks for that but sporran wrong for Canadian Scottish from what I've just researched. Initially thought Black Watch but can't think how he would have ended up with them. He's English. Born Shropshire but not on 1911 census. I know pic not brilliant but cap badge looked BW to me and they have sporran with 5 tassels
    3. Hello, This is my Great Grandfather. I'm trying to find out which regiment he served in and what era. Many thanks Ian
    4. Starting to slow down now lol and only 42. For the GSM and Gulf 1 I was serving with 5 Hvy RA The Afghan, Iraq and Non Art 5 I've earnt since with the Mobile Met Unit, an RAF sponsored reserve unit. In real life I now work for the Met Office. Not a lot of stories to tell. I do have a nice piece of 120mm rocket, courtesy of the Iraqis back in 2007 (plenty of incoming that year) which landed 20m away. I kept damn low for that and then broke cover and did a spot of first aid with a colleauge on a couple of wounded Americans.
    5. Thanks!... The ones I can't wear are as you said, Kuwait and Saudi medals but also NATO ISAF Not sure one valuation but hoping you have a very large house then
