Quite lovely, thanks, Guy. I may be one of the few to mourn the passing of most of these awards and their amalgamation in the Blue Monster.

Hi Guy

Thanks for posting. A nice looking medal. The blue monster?

The National Order of Merit -- I am told (grin) that a very nice book will soon be among us on this fascinating order.

Hi Ilja,

Nice doc. Do you have the medal that goes with ?

This doc is not for the Ordre du M?rite Agricole, but for the M?daille d'Honneur Agricole, one you don't see very often...

Hi,Christophe.Yes, I have written that it is the document to a medal. Unfortunately I dont have

medal while, but I hope to find her.

The French documents to awards and medals - one of

most my favourite. Only a lot of place occupy.
