Hi Leigh

Yes, I've seen those in auction catalogues but never had the money to buy them.

What I also find comical are the miniatures suspended from a piece of full size ribbon.

I've got about four different sizes of miniature Waterloos so I should dig them out for a "group photo".

When you look at Hart's Army lists, many have a curious, almost gothic script "W" after their names. The meaning is obvious and I think that they got some extra seniority because of their Waterloo service.

Anyone know when the last veteran of the battle passed away? OK, yes Google will answer it but why not ask the members?
