Sorry to jump back to WWII medals again, but I'm currently watching 633 Sqn on ITV4 + i've noticed an awful lot of the chaps sporting 39-45 ribbons, when its meant to be 1944? I undrstand that campaign stars, save the Africa Star, didn't appear until after the war when the medals and awards review boardboard, or whatever they're called, decided what merited what. I often wonder who advises on such detail in these films, they must ignore what they're being told sometimes and just do their own thing. Harumph!!
