    10. "I think, unless there are some further useful, pertinent comments, we are now complete with this." It may not be useful, or pertinent, but I have never been awarded an engraved US medal.
    11. Sounds logical, apparently one of the major objectives was to stop stones and stuff getting into the top of the high shoes... Happens quite often with ankle high boots.
    12. I guess finding one a second time round is going to be more difficult :-(
