London Gazette

[slider]

Anyone know where to get hold of a copy of the London Gazette that makes recent awards and promotions official? Somewhere in London, I suppose :rolleyes:

http://www.gazettes-online.co.uk/ would be a good starter for 10. It's also got a link to Aunty Bettys gong list.

There is a direct link on one of the other threads already running on this - see 'Op Telic Awards'. There is also a thread 'George Cross'.

Thanks. :ok:

But I wondered if it was still available in good old paper form? My Granny hasn't got the hang of this electronic wizardry yet.:8 I suppose I could print out the pdf but that's not the same is it!

The paper gazette is still available. You can get it from HMSO, although I think their sales arm is now called The Stationary Office.

Hope that helps

Maybe the Stationery Office. Although I don't think it's moved.

(Incidentally, Slider, the best of luck. I wanted to get a copy a couple of years ago and couldn't find how to buy one anywhere. I evntually got one from a mate of mine who was posted to the MOD in London at the time and who had some copies in his office. If you know anyone based in Whitehall they may well be able to help you).

They carry it in the periodicals section of the main library in Liverpool, so I would think you'll be able to get hold of a copy in one of Cambridge's libraries.

When I got a 'mention' (Queens Commendation for Brave Conduct) many moons ago I had to write to the Guildhall in London Town for a photocopy of the bit wot I was mentioned in. Never have seen a 'real' copy!

A search around on the magazine table in the ante room of the Mess will quite often throw up a copy. Even if they haven't got the one in question, it should have the contact details of where to buy it.

The station Admin Offices / PSFs usually have a copy too. I had to trawl through many of them when I wanted to see my name in print. Go on - go and see the Admin Wallahs - they can be nice people!

I didn't mean that. The nice bit. Meant the bit about them holding the Gazette tho.
