Jason Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) Hello Gentlemen! I received this bar from a fellow in Western Australia around 4 years ago and have been slowly but surely sourcing the correct awards to bring it back to life.... http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10729&st=0&p=109701&hl=jason&fromsearch=1&#entry109701 Edited January 16, 2010 by Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 Thanks for the comments guys...4 years was a long time but it certainly paid off in the end. Only one more bar to complete, then its off to the frame makers to have all my pre-1914 bars put into a nice display case. Then I can start on all the other incomplete projects I have sitting in my to-do box - i'm up to around 6 bars now waiting on their medals! all the best Jas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
