    Yup. :cheers:

    Highest/latest numbered one I've ever seen, too. THAT would be a VERY interesting research project-- late for a WW2 war invalid, or for :unsure: Korea? :jumping:

    Wondered about that, Rick . . . a really late numbered (and high-numbered) award. Off to the researcher with this one!

    Hi Andreas,

    Well done on this one! Goes to keep showing the great stories behind these otherwise 'humble' medals.
