Dan, the top left is his name..

Kasuo Suzuki

the bottom shot is his name on the side of the book

the other characters are militay terms...the bottom character means army..the top 2 are un-explainable to civilians...so would have to ask an army person...

Hi Robert,

I LOVE IT!

I WANT IT!

Regards

Paul

Blimey! i for one will certainly look forward to the explanation of this...owww my head hurts just thinking about it...

The first three are explainable....but the last two...Huh???

yes no one would ever guess...we can see what the ribbons look like and what they are supposed to represent...but as you say they are wrong and we would NEVER guess whats on them...( unless you were Psychic....)

Awaiting the relevations with baited breath.....

Cheers

Paul

Definately no complaints here Ed!

Fantastic!

And to see ALL the bars on the QSA AND the Kedives Sudan medal...WOW!

Please do not stop!

Thanks!

Paul

Funny accent! Harrumph!

You should try to listen to an Aussie droning on...its enough to make you go and learn Swahili!

Yes i get the drift...they came from NZ...wow! tis indeed a small world...( especially with the advent of the Internet!)

Cheers

Paul

Hi Tony!

Nice Score!

Must be hard to find these named to Neals...

I have trolled my local medal dealers stock for Neal medals with no luck..

I have just sent over a pair named with the same surname as the Gent receiving them...he just wanted them for 'vanities' sake..( thats what he said...)

This is a good group with the territorial long service medal included...

Funny how certain groups pop up here and there isn't it... as just locally a group of WW1 trio and the RN LSGC with the same ship HMS Actaeon on the LSGC as a group i have here...just turned up...am tempted...but he wants twice as much for this lot as i paid for the other lot!! small world eh!

Keep up the good work!

Regards

from NZ
