The medals?
I have another handful of medals, Quite honestly I would not put them on, this photo was taken when I was being filmed for TV. We do occasionally put on all the war time regalia, but only when requested to do that. I for one, feel a bit of a prat wandering about looking rather like a Christmas tree.

Besides that, with the medals all polished and on show, you can become a bit of a spectacle, and the centre of attention, embarrassed!

Oddly enough when we do turn out with medals on show. Often we find people do not know anything about where they came from. The war has been over for 59 years and many know nothing about D Day or anything else, come to that.
Cheers
