      I would advise against merely Googling these terms . . .

      Finally (though some is "in the gutter" here too).
    3. Ed_Haynes
      Signing-off on the award.
    4. Ed_Haynes
      But those thick bindings . . .
    5. Ed_Haynes
      The core.
    6. Ed_Haynes
      OK, I lied. Just as a "reward" for the handwriting, his OPW2 recommendation.

      Let me know if closeups on any of the sections would help. The scans are gigantic, but being in color doesn't aid the legibility for these, I fear. But then I can always make them grayscale. Being scanned does help the quality of the picture though. Makes it look like a picture! Shall add the recommendations later.

      Plus the service record photo.
    9. Ed_Haynes
      Service Record 5, the interior part the last
    10. Ed_Haynes
      Service Record 4, the interior part 2
    11. Ed_Haynes
      Service Record 3, the interior part 1
    12. Ed_Haynes
      Service record 2, the back.

      I am sorry to have to inform you that the handwriting won't improve (until we get to the typed award recommendations). Service record 1

      I think we're going to need another clue. (At least.)

      Thanks, Rick. This is a group I ordered from Eugene Rabkin, paid for, and which only after arrived after much delay and even more prodding. Not fun. Oddly, the research came (through Alexei) before the group arrived.

      Thanks, Chuck. And we look forward to hearing of your adventures too.

      And nasty, nasty, writing, I can tell that much. Not MY fault!!
    18. Ed_Haynes
      So . . . in English . . . what is it Rick? May just have to post more documents as the scanner is under one foot of stacked books in several lanmguages, none of the Svenska. . . .

      Very nice, and VERY surpising for the Baltics!
    20. Ed_Haynes
      Very nice indeed. It would be good if the Chinese archives promised any research possibilities.
    21. Ed_Haynes
      Fascinating and, I think, important -- especially in the face of all the whining that gave birth to that clasp. Thanks.

      Surrendered 15 February 1942. And -- at least for the Indian Army -- medal qualifications here were VERY complex. POW service didn't count, much, as Churchill saw this as a defeat, undeserving of any medals (even for what came down in France).
    23. Ed_Haynes
      Not quite sure -- or am I?? -- what your point here is, Franky. But that photo you link seems a real
    24. Ed_Haynes
      Actually, I am beginning to believe that "They" are faking EVERYTHING these days.
    25. Ed_Haynes
      Thanks, Rick. More to come.
