@RDPHistory Medium please

Just found the very last of the original First Casualty tee-shirts as worn by me and the guys from the book. There were only fifty in existence... Mainly medium and large I think, but I'll be selling them as memorabilia if anyone's interested?

@TrenchTrotter Very nice Tim

Something special arrived today. There are many myths, legends and tales from the Gallipoli campaign none more so than the “Missing Battalion”, the 1/5 Norfolks who attacked at Suvla on 12/8/1915. It was even suggested they disappeared into a cigar shaped cloud. More…..

@DaviesAntiques Well done, the market will drop again

6.5 million war medals were cast in silver, individually named and awarded to the men and women who fought in World War One. Sadly, due to families not remembering the recipient, these are now regularly turning up as scrap at bullion dealers. Managed to save these. #antiques

@history99917180 Just left that force , standard situation, probationers teaching probationers, acting SGTs everywhere, the truth is even if he would have been arrested for the assault and warrant he would have been out the next day anyway and nothing would have changed !

Don’t wanna be the 9am jury but, Pc on her 12th shift should never have been the OIC. Her tutor only had one years service when he became a tutor Pc. Fuck me. Have we stopped doing local & national checks of all suspects? Where’s the weekly crime review by the skipper?

@apg1916 @Mashvalleymil Great stuff

111 years ago, the battle of neauve-chapelle, William Buckingham was awarded the Victoria cross, William lived at the time in my home village of Countesthorpe, the image of him with children is at the cottage homes in the village

@apg1916 Great stuff

@inchmate Yes mate

This is a very interesting plaque

@apg1916 Nice

@cynicalbobby Direct entry has failed and will fail , and cost a fortune

Oh dear god!!! They’re doubling down on the direct entry thing. It’s failed, repeatedly and consistently. It does not work. They just don’t ever listen. This one step alone exposes the lack of expertise involved in deciding upon these reforms.

@TrenchTrotter @LegerBattleTour Thanks will do

@inchmate @LegerBattleTour Any questions, just ask.

W Beach or Lancashire Landing. Six VC’s before breakfast. Wrecked Lighters as seen today. Very hot after a cool morning. #Gallipoli

@TrenchTrotter @LegerBattleTour Brilliant I will have a look on line , fancy the trip

@inchmate I’m leading and guiding the @LegerBattleTour of Gallipoli.

@July1st1916 Picked up some plaques the other day everything else was too expensive?

Lowest price I’ve seen for a plaque £34 plus commission was drilled 1914 Stars and sets with BWM and VM seem to be increasing Just an observation, some plaques the other day were ‘passed’ not seen that before

@stockotrader That’s great , where from

Good morning. A photo Album I picked up yesterday with a good collection of WW1 Military photos #MikesOldTat

@sommecourt @OldFrontLinePod Magic stuff

Did you know @OldFrontLinePod now has an online shop? Check it out here: old-front-line-shop.fourthwall.com/en-gbp/collect…

@apg1916 A great display mate, need to pop over and see you again soon

This is how I keep my plaques/medals and how they deserve to be displayed and researched

@July1st1916 Brother looked at loads , all fake, finally got one from a trusted dealer, it’s really the only way

Having learned from followers on Twitter looks like a copy V in centre of W on the sale room start 90 The second lot couldn’t tell but went for £50 and were no close up photos

@July1st1916 @asummerof44 I agree , you are probably right

@July1st1916 @asummerof44 The market for plaques seems to have gone backwards again

Nobody seemed to want this plaque, for £40 I had to grab it Just enjoying researching looking at Edward Amos Brooks not Brookes Were spelling mistakes a thing, can’t find any records that indicate Brookes Thanks @asummerof44

@apg1916 Very nice

A nice scroll to Lt Colonel, died of wounds from 1st July 1916
