Not exactly a bargain, Mike, but, certainly the scarcer, by far, of the few campaign medals awarded to the regiment, with the exception of the KSA, I have to say though, I much prefer your "Cherrybums"

LOL Mike,
Make your mind up, 43! :ohmy: but, you said in your original post "less than 35" in reality, certainly from memory, at least, you can double that!

HHHuuummm

We are always finding new information are we not........

The number 35 was the first that I rec'd and the 43 was the second......

Maybe the originator to me was thinking of the CC bar but would have even been off by one on that count.....
