To think those meanspirted jerks up in whitehall refused their own British vets who did 90% of the service out in Malaya Borneo during the same period the right to wear the only PJM medal they will ever get, makes me very angry . . . Some of us might try some of the newspapers again, with this one.
George, I've taken the liberty of amending your penultimate post so that the 1RNZIR link works. I served with them in 28 Commonwealth Brigade ... I also made the mistake of being in a minor unit that won its group in rugby and then had a match against the Kiwi's! They did, however, supply copious quantities of anaesthetic afterwards, as I (do not) recall.
Anyway ... the link works now.
And I'll try and get a few missives off today.
