You say that the medals have changed hands a couple of times. This in itself complicates matters further.
As others have said, this practice does go on. Its not right, but its difficult to stop. You may regard it as a point of principle to chase it. But, I fear you may die in a ditch doing so.

Thanks Dave. Yes you are probably right. But I am going to give it a go. I have to try. Allowing this sort of thing to happen just doesn't sit right with me. It is so disrespectful. To quote from a famous movie "but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you"
