How does a highly probable "Long Service" Red Star wind up as the first award on a book with two glories? Also the OG2 possibly was awarded earlier than the OG3 according to "Echoes of War".

I would personally vote "no" on this being legit. The only two awards that I believe belong with the book is the ORS and VG.

The award book entries look like they were written in yesterday, I doubts about the Glory II, especially the number and the piece as a whole. Closer scans would be better.

Kiwi,

The handwriting is definitely not of period vintage. I have serious doubts about the OG2 too.

I agree totally, along with Brendan and Lapa's comments. Stay away from this group.

I believe that Glory 3rd is legit, but Glory 2nd is fake.
