    1. I have to agree!!! I've never seen this medal, but I do like it!! Best, Doc
    2. Christian and Ed, Thank You for the information about a subject that hits home...Fellow Medics. The award criteria is very interesting!!! Thank You, Doc
    3. Darrell, Oustanding article. Also, Thank You for posting the two decorations and their description. Those are REALLY, REALLY NICE!!! Doc
    4. Michael, Is this a Table Medal? Best, Doc
    5. Dave, Thank You!! I'm new to the Imperial arena. I have a lot to learn. Again Thanks, Doc
    6. Stijn, That's a GREAT looking bar!!! Be gentle with the cleaning. I would love to have one like that in my collection. Enjoy it!!! Best, Doc
    7. Soviet, PLEASE let us know if they help!! It may be just what I need. Doc
    8. I would also recommend a basic tool kit. This kit should include: 1) Magnifying Glass or Loop 2) Needle nose pliers 3) ruler 4) Calipers For making displays: 1) Velcro 2) straight pins 3)small nails/brads 4) child's Non-Toxic glue stick 5) glue gun 6) felt 7) Small hammer General: 1) jewelers screwdriver kit 2) Plastic Medal Sleeves This should be a good start. Doc
    9. Ed, That's beyond nice!!! One day, maybe...? Doc
    10. Soviet, I guess I should have stated " to buy those medals and the document representing those three medals". I say this because of the higher prices and rarity of those medals and documents. Doc
    11. Ed, Those are nice I like the fact that you have both the RPR & RSR versions of the medal and the Order!! Doc
    12. Thanks All!! I loved it when I saw it!!! Doc
    13. WOW!!! What a GREAT set!!! I look forward to the story!! Doc
    14. Ed, I agree 99% with Ya!! A Defense of Sevastopol, Odessa or the Polar Region with documents would be an excellent investment. You can get the rest of the campaign Medals later after you get the upper end stuff. Of course, I agree 100%...BOOKS, BOOKS & BOOKS. Read all you can!! Doc
    15. hunyadi, That's what I like about them. I have looked at that beautiful 3-piece construction and details many times and love it even more Doc
    16. Kevin, Tom & Wild Card, Thank You for the information!!! Austrian & Bavarian ODMs are a new arena for me. I appreciate any help. Doc
    17. Unfortunately I don't see an evident maker's mark. Best, Doc
    18. Tom, You can upload your pictures here at the forum. As for a image hosting site, here's my site: http://community.webshots.com/user/riley1965 Doc
    19. Soviet, I used that website, too. I still go back to it. Ed, GREAT idea!! As someone has said "Buy the book ...then the medal". Doc
    20. Gerd, IKEA is all over the USA. I use Michael's (A Huge Chain of craft stores) for my shadow boxes. I agree with Ya 100% It's how I learned the best way FOR ME to make my displays. Doc
    21. Gerd, Thank you for posting this primer for those new to Soviet ODMs. I can't think of anything to add except maybe a link to the OMSA Medal database Soviet section: http://www.omsa.org/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=586 Excellent work, Gerd Doc
    22. Dave, Thanks for this interesting HSU photo!!! I've added it to my file. Doc
    23. Hey Kevin, Thank You for the information!!! I'll be careful. Doc
    24. Thanks Kevin!! I'm keeping my eyes open for one each without swords and Crown and swords. Best, Doc
