A Banner day

[dond]

Today I got to meet Rick, the Good Twin at the Chantilly Show. I also met Paul which was good too. Then when I got home this was waiting for me.

Today was a good day.

And the reverse.

Sweet! Very nice! :beer:

Nice, you can't get enough of these "old-timers", IMHO.

Rick is exactly the same in person as he is on line.

The shown 70/71 Medal is for noncombattants and the ribbon is for combattants.

I don't like the K?ngiggr?tz-Kreuz. It ist not the official Version. A private purchase or maybe a modern copy?

That's right. Several hundered thounds were awarded like this.

Much rather the first, I think. A typical replacement cross.

Don doesn't look anything like HIS avatar photo, whereas mine IS me.

I'll get to my find of the show (hopefully ) soon since it was a 19th century day for me too.

You people are such bad influences, expanding my horizons and all!!!!

Bars like yours have got me interested in the Great Before 1914, Don.

[dond]

Careful Rick. You'll have to break out the ol' change purse.

With a wrong ribbon?
