COMPLETED Please restore WW11 RAF
« on: Sunday 22 November 09 15:13 GMT (UK) »
This is a picture of my late father in law who served in RAF for 24 years including WW11. I would like to frame it with his medals as a suprise Christmas present for his only daughter, my wife. If anyone fancies a colour he had dark brown hair, hazel eyes and a light complexion. I am away until Thursday so thanks in advance for any improvements, individual thanks will follow on my return.  :)
Regards
Pat

Looking  at the original, I reckon he has the Africa Star up...Here is a colour version of the ribbon for you all!  ;) ;D

One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.
