Pin

Hello I am new to this forum I wanted to which is the best forum to post a question in regarding medals and pins? Would it be the collectibles forum? I have a Royal Canadian Legion Pin that my grandfather gave me from his service working with them. I have a picture of it that I can upload should it be of any help if anyone here is familiar with it. Looking for any background info on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks alot,

Drafter

Hi Drafter, welcome to the forum. Yes, the Collectibles section would probably be the best place. Don't forget that there is a size limit to attachments, so if you get an error message it probably means it needs to be resized

Thanks alot for the welcoming I will try that forum. I thought so but wasn't sure and will keep in mind file sizes. I have it cropped down so hopefully it shouldn't be a problem.

Glad to see you here Drafter. The 1st Battalion Canadians has now landed and we expect to set up Brigade HQ soon!

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)
