I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

Unless you had been standing in No 1, 34, 67 etc in the queue you would not have got one anyway.

If someone really, really, really wants a DJM then why not buy one?

The Vets with real medals probably wouldn't want one especially with the expense of adding it to all their other medals. The Vets that might be creating probably don't have any at all.

PS,

One Vet I know has a seriously long string of medals. The pin is so long he practically had a DIY vasectomy when he put them in his pocket - ouch!
