your not going to like this but i agree that they shouldnt use bear skins! so its a tradition that does NOT make it right!

ssswwwweeeeetttttt my copy is being shipped on tuesday!!!! all good cant wait!!! and riley on my birthday this friday il raise a pint in your name!!

just ordered echoes of wars there cant wait!!!!! and red bible is fanastic!! all my mates want to borrow it!!!!

about 2 years ago a copy of this came up for auction here in dublin and i wanted it so much that even though on my way into the auction i realy badly twisted my ankle i toke the pain got in and won the book!! could NOT belive i got it!! still kinda cant!! i was bidding against about 5 people but i had to have the book!!!! i havent seen a copy turn up in ireland since! also every web site i see is normaly sold!! well worth the price!!!

damn you people for find these things while i dont!!!!!!

how hard are the non com hungarian medals to find?

ironicly it will get repeated on my local irish channl RTE and the history channel! was a great doc actuly!!!

although not a huge lose of life how about ark royal!!! could have been saved but wasnt due to messed up rescue effort!! just my 2 cents!!

i have 3 of those service ribbions with the crest on them! one has no attachment on the top the secand has a 25 years clasp and the third has a 50 year clasp on it! mad eby the same maker!! very nice vet peices!!!

wow rick truly is the master!! even if he is evil!! i can hardly remember what happened yesterday and rick can remember a pics from years ago with the same bar!! amazing!! have a beer on the house!!!!(great bar to by the way!! )

ah well you cant have everything!!! always love breast....stars!!!! thanks for the pics!!!

wow that breast star is amazing!!!! can we see the back???

always did love the little mouse on gallands plane!!!!!

those three 109s are they realy or repos!!!!

ssssssswwwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeetttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

these boys rock!!!!!!! and boy thats was fast to!!!!!!!!

from what i know yup there one of the few ones to be awards for actule combar unlike the other orders etc!!

very nice! these medals are great because they were only awarded for combat!!! very nice one to!!

iv been looking back through jackels of the reich by ronad seth (1972) and he says in it that reginald leslie cornford died fighting in berlin! is this true or are is it a misprint????? thanks pk for all that info on the irish and ww2!!

he he i know what you mean!!! but not sure where you can get the hart man plane i was just in the right place at the right time and iv not seen any in dublin since!!

i reckon(and its only me now) that the reason these are for the most part missing there medals is cos the owners might have dicede that going back to the normal ribbions and toke the medals off the plastic ribbions! still very nice all thje same!!

i know that the germans did help arm the irsih rebellion in 1916 etc and that i think they also helped the ira in ww2 to start a bombing campigian on the british mainland but intrestling when the germans tryed to recruit/start a irish ss division the recruiter were beatin up and thrown out of the camps!! i saw that british programme on the free korps and it was very intresting as they were pretty much kept away from any fighting and they were more of a burdin then anytthing else! one guy did partisapated(?) in the battle of berlin but was killed! i read a great book called jackels of the reich again all about the brit free corps!!

iv one or two of these hook bar well bars and they dont have medals and i plan to find medals that are missing there ribbions and only missing there ribbions to make them whole again! i reckon that alot of these medals of this era that are missing there ribbions are missing them because they have been removed from bars like this! plus they look i think so much better with the medals on them!

the hartman 109 plane is a limited edtion bird sadly! mine is 199 out of 2000 but thats why its so expesive! when i saw it i just HAD to have it!! and yup you can do all that stuff!!! great to have actuly you can have great "dogfights" when theres no one around!!!

i got these in a model shop the 109 was dear it was 139 euros but the p51 was 79 and yeah its a pain displaying them as they are so big but they rock!!!
