I recall once that Graham Lay hugely undervalued a gallantry award for the Dams Raid, and had a tendency to get all emotionally effusive over things.
But at least he presented militaria; I would get very weary of "militaria" previously being basically flintlock weapons as that was the expert's "thing".
Having been at a Roadshow, I know they have a backup to check facts - so silly errors like that...
But it was nonetheless a sad loss and no age at all.
