Great information Thank you very much Gordon :food-smiley-004: , I was not aware that military personel got the one without swords. Any idea what he did to recive it?

You have a freind who was in the "LAH", Cool , I was in the food court at a mall in Red Deer, and there was an older grey haired gentleman a few table's away who was wearing a leather hat, and it had the Div sign for the 'Frunsberg", I so wanted to go ask him if that was it, but I had a concern that he might not take it the right way! I would be interested to talk to a vet from there, though they miight not want to talk about their experiences.

Here's another one of mine, It's purported to be an unmarked S&L

How about a frontal shot Darrell,

Well Jim, as you know I dont ordinarily like to show off cheeky

I dont know what the picture is going to be like, but here you go.

Sorry but my camera does not do it justice, I had to scan it. Not as minty as Gordons, and I will admit I have though a few times of buffing it up, but in the long run, I think the patina is nicer. Yes it's good to run into Gordon again, from what I have been told "The Bible" will soon be going to the publishers.

Hey John :food-smiley-004:

Very Nice Gordon Thank you

I think you got that backwards Jim cheeky

How'd you get your grubby little paws on that one????

Oh I see the wife made you take the collection out side eh! animal

Yeah but the cases are in the house :violent-smiley-007:

Got to thank you for the WWW. Jim wub.gif

I have been having the same problem, I know that Nick (Chairman) is aware of the problem

Ha. You should see what we are going thru over here, in relation to compensation claims :wacko: The only book I have on the subject is called "Man Hunt in Kenya" by Ian Henderson and Philip Goodhart, an old book put out by Bantam Books

The Newfoundland Medal is #1839, he served on Destroyers for the most part, but he also was on an aircraft carrier when he first joined up?

Is there a problem withh the "Add attachments" as nothing I do will let me add an attachment. It does take .jpg files correct?

Nice I am trying to concentrate on MM'd and cased ones. I tried adding another but it would not allow me no matter what I tried!

Hi Nick and dave Nice and minty crosses, twins to boot

Not saying there was, thats the apple of my eye . I just wish I had more cheeky, along with Jim's cased KvK2

I hope you are going to show off your new RK des KVK Gordon??

Cheers

Dave

Nice one Chairman. here's my pityfully small collection of cased crosses

Finally a photo of my Dad

The white stuff is brasso or something of that like that Dad used to polish them, I have just never had the heart to remove it, as I know how much pride he had for them, and can visualize him polishing them prior to parading on Rememberance Day

The reverse of the Newfoundland Medal

For those of you that are not familiar with it, the second last is the "Newfoundland Volunteer Medal"

And the provenance to the Bar

You know me Jim. I would like to say "Hi" to all the members on this forum

And the Thank You

These belonged to my father who served in the RN during the second war
