    Default MN Lapel Badge International ?

    Although I would be very pleased to recieve the badge and both add to my collection and wear proudly on occassions. Would personally stand down on my own request if by chance demand was higher than the stock and if someone perhaps missed the post or was late in applying. Althogh have posted the neccessary, see that Billy has taken into account those so far shown interest on site.

    Would be interseting to know if MN National possibly would have something similar made prior to Annual MN Days, would be good to see all wearing similar at Tower Hill and even around the world at similar in Oz, NZ, SA, Canada etc. Would be good to swop and collect all countries designs ? ? ?

    Food for Thought ?

    Keith,

    As mentioned, those who have posted have been noted and badges put aside.

    About two month ago I was contacted by Brian Gray, the supply officer for the National MNA in regard to where I purchased my badges from. He was hoping the National Executive Committee would accept a proposal to have something similar made up to hand out free to those who attend Tower Hill this year. Previously it was only the Standard Bearers who paraded who received anything.

    Default Over the seas and far Away etc.

    I think the badges and wrist bands are great ideas and could be produced quickly in time for the Service etc, unlike coins and postage stamps which may occur. I would be pleased when they are achieved but this could be some considerable time away. Hopefully, something will occur more quickly with the song.

    Posted some badges to Australia two days ago, but to be honest I never checked the name on the envelope, so it could of been yours.

    I know the ones I posted to Keith have gone miising in the post (typical Royal Mail)
