    1. Fantastic thanks, I'll probably get a copy when I'm next paid - next month - thanks.
    2. Hello, I'm trying to research British WW1 and WW2 dated Special Constabulary lapel badges. In particular trying to identify which badges belong to which period. Does anyone know of any useful websites or books that I could refer to please?
    3. Thank you, that's very useful.
    4. Can someone tell me please in what circumstances was the WW1 USA Victory Medal issued without any bars. Thank you. Duncan.
    5. I've recently acquired this small ATS lapel badge and surprised to see that it has a serial number stamped on the rear. Has anyone come across this before or know what the serial number refers too please?
    6. Yes, that is really annoying. There must be stacks of Commonwealth and Imperial records out there, but not accessible unless you visit the actual records office. I remember though when all you could get of UK records was the Medal Index Card.
    7. Thank you both, that's really interesting.
    8. Can someone tell me what the lightening flashes on the Belgian 1940-45 Commemorative Medal ribbon were specifically for please. There's some vague references online to 'Intelligence' or the resistance, but not much detail. Thank you, Duncan.
    9. Hi, just an update, the rolls and legders are not searchable online, so you have to visit the records office in Australia to manually search. Thanks for the help, Duncan.
    10. Can someone tell me a bit about this badge please? I've assumed it's South African.
    11. Hello, thank you for the information, that's very kind of you to help. All the best, Duncan.
    12. I bought a few WW2 Australian badges, all numbered on the rear. Are there any online records where I might be able to find the recipient using these numbers please. Regards, Duncan.
    13. Could someone tell me roughly what era / date these Canadian veterans badges date from please. There's no makers names on the rear. They're screw plate buttonhole fixings. Thank you, Duncan.
    14. That's fantastic, many thanks both of you. I read that a Doctor Valude removed Monet's cataracts, but can't find where I read that now. Thank you again Hendrik and pinpon590, that's very much appreciated.
    15. This is an interesting little medal I've just acquired. Is anyone able to tell me where I could find out a bit more information about Docteur Valude please?
    16. Thank you both for the information, that's very helpful. Regards, Duncan.
    17. Hello Hendrik, thank you for the information, I'm delighted to own one to a women 😀
    18. Hello, was the French Medal of Honour for the Railway awarded to woman, and if so is this one pictured likely to be to a woman? Or is 'Marie' both a man's or a woman's name?
    19. Can someone tell me please how unusual it is for a Hindenburg Cross to have no makers mark on the rear. Does this signify anything, like later issue, or post WW2 issue? Thank you.
    20. Would really like the Silesian Eagle and Baltic Cross. Bit of a minefield though, I often see things sold as copies that look genuine to me!
    21. Hello, does anyone know of any reliable dealers I can buy the odd Freikorp medal from please? I'm not that great at telling fakes from genuine, so if someone knows of a trustworthy dealer please can you let me know. My usual dealers don't seem to stock them, and I don't trust ebay. I'm in the UK.
