not sure but I suspect his mum gave them to him 🙂 Come to think of it it does look like his mum dressed him and he will grow into it! ( first day at school ect)
2 off jubilee gongs in the middle I think.
Being exceptionally posh

So mostly his Mom being a queen for ages.He could have at least shot a few people for them.
They give them out for all sorts. Plenty of people in the Fire Service walk round with various ribbons proudly attached to their chest (Usually the ones who spend most of the day behind a desk). We get them for the Jubilee, various anniversaries and the like along with a medal. Don't actually have to do anything to be awarded them apart from turn up to work. I imagine old Eddy boy will be the same.
Beaten to it, see above.
Jubliee junk.
The Earl of Wessex, who famously failed to complete his Royal Marines commando course and never saw active service, nevertheless holds nine honorary military appointments in the UK and Canada.
..on his chest he wears the Silver Jubilee Medal, the Golden Jubilee Medal, the Diamond Jubilee Medal and the New Zealand Commemorative Medal.
Beneath his medals he wore the insignia of the Order of the Garter and the Royal Victorian Order.
Pubes need a trim.
If Andrew dresses like that, the two of them could stand either side of a window and look like a pair of curtains.

How dare you say that.
Sympathy.
Not every medal you see people wearing shows that they have been shot at or blown up. Frequently, they are commemorative medals i.e. Queen's Jubilee medals.
Rockhopper and Rorsach thanks for clarification 🙂
Bruneep its best to ignore the trolls, sadly this place has many
Even I've got a medal. Something to do with the prison service but I can't remember what it was for, probably a 'thanks for turning up' one.
Who cares it all helps bring in the tourist ££££££ that creates lots of jobs .
thought they were for services to racism and stupidity ?
I have thicker skin than most after 26yrs in FS no prisoners taken there.
It's the sat behind a desk bit. I got mine for sleeping, playing pool/snooker, car washing, sorting out my part time work and surfing the Internet to see what offshore bank is best suited to my free gold plated pension that the tax payers gift me.

TBF I reckon at least 95% of the posters on here wouldn't pass the course, they'd just fail less famously.

Hair Apparent?
3 years' service, 6 years' service, 10 years' service & cleaning the nozzles on the chicken soup machines.
The one on the right is definitely a winners medal from Teamsport karting in Cardiff, I've got one exactly the same 😆
And it's bruneep and maccruiskeen through to the final of Who Winz The Internetz 😉
Bit unfair to just single out one of our parasitic shapeshifting lizard overlords, eh harry?

Beat me to it 😀
He's probably got a Bronze and Silver Swimming Certificate also.
I got given a commemorative tie for 5 years service. It was appropriately grey with the company logo and a 5 embroidered on it.
How dare you say that.
Sorry if that upsets you mate but it was a statement of fact in my Brigade, not a particular dig. WM and below do not tend to wear theirs, SM and above do. The majority of SM and above jobs are based behind a desk the majority of the time.

Coming from you this made me LOL.
I thought they were all to do with Buggery...
Medal for being buggered by a Teacher in Prep School
Medal for being buggered by a Prefect at Eton
Medal for being buggered by a Burser at Oxbridge
Medal for being buggered by an officer at Sandhurst
To be fair the company I work for gives out ribbons and awards for every 5 years service and people wear them at events....
Some people like ribbons and medals some people don't. At least he is not wearing anything that would have been given for actually doing something he didn't do.

😯
Are you new in the FS?
😕
No 'it's a Royal knockout' second runners up medal?
What has he actually done that deserves a medal and a silly uniform?
If 17yrs in is new then yes. 😉
I have to take my normal head off when entering STW as usual rules don't apply and people seem to fret over the most minor things.

You're confusing them with meddles.
Pretty sure all hm forces get the one on the right hand one, as my misses has one.
My kid's got more than that and he's only 13!
Got one for every football and rugby tournament he's been in, every season completed and some school sportsday ones. Just hasn't got the silly uniform to wear with them.
Yup got pretty much the same collection as Bruneep with the exception of 20 years of working. 😉

The others actually passed basic training though. I bet Harry's medals aren't made out of foil coated chocolate like Uncle Eddie's.
Even Chas got his wings, but didn't get the badge for the "how to stop at the end of the runway" bit.

That's the Diamond Jubilee medal; she'll have qualified for it if she joined before Feb 07.
I have five, three from the army and two from the fire service but as I'm not a watch commander sat behind a desk I leave them in my loft 🙂

at least he had a go and had the sense to drop out as it wasn't for him
One on the left is for turning up to work for 20yrs
I prefer to get paid but each to their own
Is he still wearing his 'It's a Royal Knockout' gong?
at least he had a go and had the sense to drop out as it wasn't for him
Yet he dresses up like that.
It obviously runs in the family.
Wow, those North Koreans (I assume) are amazing!! 😯
Wow, those North Koreans (I assume) are amazing!!
They would give the pearly kings and queens a run for their money 😀
Most of the North Korean medals are just turing up awards and incremental duration awards. Bit like getting the RoSPA driver awards every year for crashing your van.
I'd have thought a long service medal (over 5 years) in North Korea must be rarer than a VC over here, what with all the purges etc.
Those north Koreans must be stronger than they look, a medal haul like that must weigh a ton.
Except I guess they'll all be plastic. Metal will be used in one of their glorious leaders projects.
The Korean chap in the middle of the front row would appear to have a medal on the end of his willy.
I bet Prince Andrew has one of them.
