        In the long run, retirement money on medals will probably prove to be a better investment than a pension fund!!! You mark my words!! However its parting with them that will be the problem!!! Happy anniversary!

        Oh, I think you are right JimZ, but convincing the wife is the hard part. Besides, it's not a lot of money in the retirement account.

    6. Hi Oleg,
      Thanks for your note. We have researched this award extensively and found that only about 45 5th awards were issued. The ones that have been available on the open market have sold for between $30,000 and $60,000. We are contacting Sothebys about a possible sale through them unless in the meantime someone offers us closer to it's actual value. Thanks again for your interest.
      Dave

    20. The invasion of Gallipoli started around 03.30 of April 25, 1915, 96 years ago tonight and continued until January 9, 1916, when the last troops of the defeated French and British left the peninsula. App. 250.000 Turks and invading forces died or wounded in this campaign. From this war 3 nations and countries was born: Turkey, Australia and New Zealand.

        You the mothers
        who sent their sons from far away countries
        wipe away your tears.
        Your sons are now living in our bosom
        and are in peace.
        Having lost their lives on this land they have
        become our sons as well

        My grandfather was at Gallipoli or Gelibolu as you call it in Turkish. He always said the Turks were very good soldiers and very good people. This I have learned for myself. The memorial is very, very moving and Ataturk and his generation had much to teach human beings about forgiveness and reconciliation.

    21. Hi Owain, I've been reading your posts and they are most enjoyable. Thanks for sending me the info. I'll write more later... John Liffiton

    22. Happy Easter!

        And to you and your Family Claudius. For most people Easter has lost it's original meaning - however, I still think it is a time for reflection.
        Best wishes Mervyn

        Thank you Mervyn. I hope you and yours had a great Easter as well. For me, Easter and the Christmas have become a time for renewal as my children begin to comprehend the meaning behind the candy, presents and celebrations.
