How did that guy get all those medals? The Royal Navy hasn’t been in an engagement since 1945.
This guy sees a Southwest Asia Service Medal, for deployment there during the First Gulf War 1990-1992.
Also there’s what looks like a leafy felt tomato his granddaughter asked him to wear.
They are probably earned for wokeness, above and beyond the call of duty.
You forgot the sarcasm tag....and the Falklands, and MauMau rebellion, and Suez crisis, and Indo-paki war, and the Persian gulf war I, Persian gulf part 2, and various brush wars around the planet.
Falklands
The Falklands war?
As a prank, an ROTC guy I knew put a stick of Trident gum in among his many ROTC ribbons. It fit pretty good, and no one ever noticed. Maybe this admiral is doing something similar.
