Neville has a made a huge contribution to the Forum by starting several new and popular threads, more generally by posting details of a very wide range of artefacts which have broadened our knowledge and also a great number of high quality pictures.

Neville has just reached 1,000 thankyous.



What is not so readily seen is Neville's work on Trubute Medals. Details of 1,286 medals and there recipients have been collated by Neville and shared on the site

www.angloboerwar.com/medals-and-awards/224-tribute-medals

To give an idea of the scale of Neville's work, when Hibbard's Boer War Tribute Medals: The Definitive Work of Boer War Tribute Medals was published in 1982, it contained fewer that 100 medals.

For all your many contributions, Neville, you deserve a very big thank you.

Congratulations Neville. That is alot of thank yous, a fair few from me for the amount of knowledge I have gained from your fascinating posts/threads.
Thanks to your tribute medal posts, I have learned how to recognise them when they turn up which has led to some of my favourite acquisitions to my collection.
A huge thank you!!
Cheers Steve
