michael smith Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 This is a not very good imageof s.boat plaque and 1st pat award with min., could members give me some comment about these awards please. regards Mike.
Gordon Williamson Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I remember having one of these plaques in the dim and distant past, for one of the S-Boot flotillas that operated in the Mediterranean. Don't see them around much these days .You'd need much better pics for sound opinions on the full size badge. The mini looks nice too, again you don't see the larger S-Boot minis so often now.
