Manhood and Loyalty Medal (Medalia Barbatie si Credinta) The Manhood and Faithfulness Medal was awarded to noncommissioned Officers and enlisted men for service to the Crown of Romania as well as for lesser acts of Bravery. It was awarded in 3 classes, with and without swords; 1st class In Gold (gilt), 2nd class Silver and 3rd class In Bronze. For military service the medal was awarded with crossed swords. During the First World War, when Romania was associated with the Allied powers, this award was also given to British N.C.O.'s for acts of bravery in the Eastern Theatre of War. The words BARBATIE SI CREDINTA Literal translation is "Manhood and Faith" and in the context of this award means "Manhood- courage and Bravery Faith (as in faith in God)". http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o72/rik242_2006/Romania_Medaille_Barbatie_si_Credin.jpg[/img]

Oh good another mystery! Its not like Ive got anything better to do... :whistle: Scan the docs Adam.

First thing I would do is put his name in google and see what you come up with. Secondly if you know his unit, google that too. Finding the War Diaries for his units actions, especially if he was decorated would be a good find as he should be mentioned and you can find out what actions he was decorated for. Try an ebay search for the War Diaries, I picked up some for the Oxon Bucks L.I. for about £20. If only we had a separate section for this sort of thing..... :whistle:

Dont get me started...! http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o72/rik242_2006/packard.jpg[/img]

You done that quick! Superb job though mate. Dont forget the floor patterns when you visit!

Be careful Jack, you are getting "technical"! :whistle:

Awesome...Whats the 2 wierd little tracked things nearest the camera?

Panther at Bov, seems to have a gun aperture on the right whereas the one in the pic seems to have one on the left. http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o72/rik242_2006/Holupload132.jpg[/img]

Egg sandwiches? Stops them getting squashed...

This could also count as a caption competition, what is it?

Have you got any pics of the internal heating pipes, especially in the rear? Where were they used? The vehicles that is, not the pipes!

I wouldn't want one. :shake:

Came across these pics recently. Ive never seen it being used as an ambulance, and can someone tell me the guns that the other is fitted with? Looks like a bit of a mix from the pic. http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o72/rik242_2006/id_m3_halftrack_ambulance_01.jpg[/img] http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o72/rik242_2006/id_m3_halftrack_ambulance_02_sm.jpg[/img] http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o72/rik242_2006/id_m15_multiple_gmc_02_700_t28e1.jpg[/img]

Yes, because you need another vehicle dont you. ;-) If youre not interested let me know, not sure about the military connotations though, Ive never seen one.

No whereabouts with the pics Im afraid.

Is this the same vehicle? http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o72/rik242_2006/thumbnailer.jpg[/img]

:coffee2:

The bottoms of my window frames are virtually non-existent, I would be interested to see some pics of how youve done yours.

The turret doesnt look like a Tiger turret does it? :whistle:

Bastogne Tigers
