    Here you go...................medals bought not earned, people collect stamps I collect Walter Mitty files, as they NEVER go away, only to surface somewhere else years later!!! Some may call that sad, but through my experience these people do not desist.

    The Misrepresentation of Uniforms Act 1894 has now been repealed and covered in many areas of the law under different headingS.

    The MOD statement says it all:

    "Activities such as this can lead to public confidence in Military Charities being undermined"

    ......................not withstanding a disgrace to all those real soldiers who died to give this man his freedom, to be able to do what he did!!

    I just can't understand the thought process that leads to someone thinking it's a good idea playing dress up...
