Here's a young hero (unfortunately did not come home from Afganistan), which captures him wearing his badged beret the correct way.

I see that the Guys and Gals in Afghanistan had a very narrow escape. James Blunts' flight out to *Entertain" them was cancelled. Sad

Come on chaps, we're all old sweats here, ('specially His Caledonian Grumpiness !).

Look at this character, with all that service in he's still a lance-jack. He's a problem child ain't he ?

I bet bet he's milking that MC for all it's worth.

When did they do away with the MM by the way ?

Guest

When they decided not to discriminate between ossifers and ORs

Brum,

In addition to the MM, the following were also discontinued in 1993 - DCM, AFM, DFM & the DSM.
