I'm looking forward to attending on the day. After all, it's only a mile or so from where I grew up. As for medals, I am in possession of both the Kuwaiti and Saudi versions. And intend to wear neither, nor the "legal" ones awarded. I know where I was, what I did (or didn't) and a ribbon and a bit of metal won't change any of it. AlwaysAKGE, thanks for the heads up, I'm sure we would know each other, and perhaps we can say hello on the day. I might even bring an old friend along if he wants to come.
