[Kev in Deva]

Hallo Gents,

My buddy Mike at the Hobby Club in Deva showed me this piece this evening:-

The following is written on it:

PRO PATRIA MORI : DULCE ET DECORUM EST.

Any Ideas?

It could be Hungarian, Kevin.

It could be Hungarian, Kevin.

"Dulce et decorum..." It is sweet and appropriate to die for one's country.

Az Magayr! (Its Hungarian)

Basically (off the top of my head) the reverse reads:

"National Associtaion of Middle Schools Sportsgroup"

"Competition Prize"

I belvied that this organization was supported or a subsidary of MOVE the anti communits pro nationalist organization. I see these medals quite frequently in gold, silver and bronze - the ribbon should be the national tricolors.

Many thanks for the info, as ever :jumping: By the way Bon Voyage

PRO PATRIA MORI : DULCE ET DECORUM EST.

The Latin quote is: "Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori".
