gjw Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Hello all, can someone let me know if the ribbons for the above medals are the same or different like the Long Service Medals? If different, can you point me to were I can find the correct ribbons? Many thanks my friends Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gjw Posted June 20 Author Share Posted June 20 Hey Gorden, I don't have any yet. I'm trying to determine what ribbons are correct, so when I do find some, I have the correct ribbon. Sorry for the confusion Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip.S Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Greg, To my, non-reliable😅, knowledge, they are identical, both in ribbon, and in medal, except for the different writing in the centre, and the jet fighter just below. Regards, Philip.S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megan Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Good to hear that you are sorted.

Thanks again all! Stay well my friends Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megan Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Don't fret, Greg. As I tell my students, the only stupid question is the one that you do not ask! Now that the marking monster has been slain I shall have more time for medals so shall see about getting my Huhgarian section into better shape. Found some sources for images of this lot, so maybe I'll start with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
