 PJM Medal presentation in Vancouver

The Malaysian Consulate General done us proud, showed films of the conflict in Malaya and Borneo. Personally presented us with the medal, there were several photographers snapping away, we left our e-mail with them they are going to send us copies, I will pass them on to you when I get them.  Then they had us all together at one end of the hall for a photo shoot, so our relatives or friends could get shots of us all together. Followed by sandwiches tea or coffee.

My Glengarry was in my pocket but as only an old SAS guy wore headdress I thought it best to fit in with the rest of the guys.
