My First Modern Awards

[Pagan]

Hi there,

Just picked these up and was quite excited, as its my first mounted set. Oh yeah the Nato ones come with a full set of miniatures as well

But the one that got me was the East Timor Medal, this is named and the unit was the logistics regiment, its a beautiful one to look at

Just thought I would share, my lady said I looked like a kid at xmas as I was so happy.

Thanks

Hello Mel,

I didn't know the Kiwis went to E. Timor too, in fact, I haven't a clue where they're stationed. Nice group though.

The UNPROFOR - would that have been earned as liason rather than as a member of a NZ unit, & is the group named to a RNZAF?

This is named to RNZLR. The Logistics Regiment.

This medal was issued to 5,000 NZer's both military and civilian and was instituted in 2001 so imagine my surprise when I saw these being offered at an estate sale.

I know the RNZAF and SAS ones are rare, but there is always hope ;-)

Nice set Mel, and my better half often comments that I look much happier when there is a package to be opened when I get home than I am when I see her! :lol:
