Rather than issue more gongs, how about giving us a day to day uniform where you can wear ribbons. My half dozen only ever get aired at the odd Dining In, the Summer Ball, the Annual Cockers P and a hats on discussion with no tea and biscuits!
In my present location, hot and humid, the slack handful of Army officers wear their ribbons on broaches on their Tropical Dress, on a daily basis. I've spent a few years in warm and sunny climates, but this is the first time I've seen ribbons worn on shirts. I suspect it's a local thing...has anyone else encountered this? Personally, I think it looks quite smart, but the RAF would then need to introduce a metal brevet...cue new thread, I suspect.
