HarryBettsMCDCM Posted 29 December , 2009 Share Posted 29 December , 2009 This was IIRC awarded by the Italians for specific service in that Campaign,I believe it has more "Commemorative status" without "permission to wear" being granted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
