Good Morning Brett.....

I would love to get a complete collection of one medal from every unit including Colonial but I think that will take a couple of lifetimes......

But I am going to give it a damn good try :lol: LOL.....

With over 900 Units and 26 Bars the combinations would be well you do the math.....

There are a number of people that have tried to do just that, I have yet to actually meet anyone who has been successful, it would certainly be quite an accomplishment, there is a particular gentleman who has come rather close though.
