I agree with most of the other posters so far, a big "NO" from me. Why should some long since retired 'veteran' get a medal when some of those serving and dying in Afghanistan aren't even in line?
What do you want it for? To hang next to that one you brought from a company in a magazine? Give that National Service medal something to rattle against next time you are propping up the bar in the legion, telling all and sundry your 'war stories' from the bad old days of the BAOR, fighting off the Soviet hoard whilst having to cope with yellow handbags und dodgy frikadellers?
