    Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
    Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
    Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
    Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
    We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
    But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

    Yeah, I saw that, but I dont have one and the australian dude is definetly wearing a different badge...the silver borders are way off. + he is wearing quite a few reproduction medals (not fake, just not first releases)

    ...if I have time I might make a small post about past and present of estonian medals....but seeing how fast this place pops up in Google searches...Id rather give advice if someone asks and not feed information to fakers. ( your post for the Latvian insignia popped up in my google like 5min later when I googled Latvian insignia)

    Like some of the stuff on the picture above, you can only have personalized and Veteran unions have lists and numbers of who has what. Thats why I only took pic of the front.
