Good on ya', Tony!

My sources on Europeans are extremely limited, but I was bumping against dead ends and was wondering.

The LG is a joy, but far from user-friendly. But, then, when you consider what they've done here, I guess we can forgive crankiness.

With the London Gazette and Commonwealth War Graves Commission web sites, reserach on 20th century British gongs has been transformed.

This other Battle of Britain thread reminded me very much of this one. Remember this bloke? Blimey, I spent some time trawling for this bugger.

A couple of additional bits of info on Boyd:

August 1929 Air Force List: Wing Commander on the directing staff of the Staff College, Camberley
August 1933 Air Force List: Group Captain and Officer Commanding, Aden Command (which could explain the Iraqi medal without a GSM)
May 1936 Air Force List: Air Commodore and AOC No. 1 (Bomber) Group.
