Possible Walther I know...

Post by Peds »

Someone I know claims their father served on HMS Invincible in the Falklands. I would believe them, but they have a history of bending the truth ;)
Any quick questions I can use to ascertain the truth?

You can have peace.
Or you can have freedom.
Don't ever count on having both at once.

Unless they have been on HMS Invincible for the past 24 years.....I pretty much doubt it. Every person who was at the Falklands was awards with a whole host of medals. Just get him to show you.......If he a sentimental type. If he`s like everyother matelot, he would have sold them for beer money

Don't forget to read the name on the medals... you'll find it around the edge of it. If it is blank ask him what happened to his origional medals!
