Nice ones, Doc. Let me see what research I can scare up.

Hey, always room for one more addiction, eh??

Thanks Ed!!! I was determined to start collecting the IGS series. I just needed a start. Thanks to Chris P. I was able to purchase these. I look forward to the research. I know that one of the units is discussed on Soms of John Company. I'm going to read that section.

Nice medals Doc! I am also a fan of the IGS - great design, lots to the units I'm interested in and very relevant to the current activities of the Brit army (for good or otherwise). Not wanting to hijack your thread, but I recently picked up a group of 4 to a Royal West Kent man, as yet unresearched and horribly mounted (by the dealer). With the 14-15 star as well, It will be interesting to try and trace this 920 (later G61283 Pte Steer's) journey to Afghanistan.

Cheers
