Readers will notice the similarity between John's photo and my avatar...

John sent me the photo a few years ago, just after he had acquired the badges and was seeking more info on Cpl R Biggs.
I'm afraid to say I couldn't resist using it as my avatar - sorry (and thanks) John but they are excellent badges.

Nick

...and now to explain why these two posts seem to be out of sequence - I was just editing my post when John was quick off the mark with his reply!

Hi John,
I see that you are using the 101 Troop badge as your avatar - should you wish to use the No5 Cdo badge, I will, of course, change mine...
