Sword - why?

I have one - was given it many moons ago - and used to display it proudly above the fireplace. Frequent moves and a process of demilitarising my life has relegated it to 'storage'. I did consider selling I but was worried that some spotty wannabee would get some sad vicarious thrill from owning it. One day my son might enjoy owning it along with the attendance medals that I accumulated - both Imperialistic hangovers. Sadly I lost the belt and hangers at RAF Leeming ('borrowed') in the early 1990s. Replacement set is about £400, apparently.

Oh, also wore it for my wedding.
