I had a thought the other day .....
To commorate our victory at CR , and also to pay respect to the dedication of those German troops who "survived CR" , that I reckon the German Commander could run ot a small award .
I was thinking of sending a small piece of the Eastern Front Medal Ribbon to all who wanted one, it's worn on the second button hole as an EKII ribbon .
Technically it's for the Eastern Front , however it was also known as the "Order of the Frozen Flesh" which is probably more appropriate ot the actual weekend .
It's a gratis freebie, post below if your interested and I'll sort some ribbon out . It would be nice ot run ot a CR campaign medal , but I aint that rich .
I'll do the same for all the non-organiser Allies who survived until end-ex on the Sunday.
Should cost me about 80p.
Great idea Guy, and very generous.
Being the king of bling, I already have one - however, let us salute those brave warriors who resisted until the end.
