I'll skip code 2 and switch to English in case there are any CA members who are not Warlord agents out there (doubtful) 

Lorry - you may not be familiar with that decoration, because its not awarded to many in real life. The Victoria Cross I believe is made from the guns at Balaclava, hence the dark brown metal.

There are only 12 living recipients. I met one once -

More recently in the press was Johnsson Beharry, the only living person to recieve the award since Rambahadur.

I did have moral issues about if we should wear medals, but its part of the image we try to portray. Mine is of course a replica for the purposes of military reenactment, and I make no claim to it. Actually, I'm not sure if the Wild Choppers are classified as military or not, now I think of it. Anyway, we celebrate and salute the memory of those who gave everything for our Country.

I actually received 2 cards!  The first one didnt arrive so my mum wrote and complained and then 2 turned up - but I don't think that made me  a double agent.

However I did later join another youth organisation that had a red wallet but I can't remember the name of the esteemed publication?


Oh happy days

With you 100% there Mr Toad.    From what I've understood of those brave souls. The had a sense of humour and would have no problem with  your  efforts.   It saddens me that there are to be no more "official" commemerations of D-Day or other WWII events after 60 years.

Lest we Forget,

Red wallet eh? - sounds like it might be a communist version of the YHA? Or maybe Bunty?

As they say in code 6 "tiyu trogjyls vjrolnskth"!

As you can hopefully see, I've recovered the secret papers from the attic, including a letter from Peter Flint. He wishes me good luck and says "Its your special task to find out other Agents to communicate with in your school or area, they will be identified by the Winged "W" Badge"

Not sure if schools in my area would look too kindly upon that, but I do have the codes now if any other CA/Warlord agents want to communicate in code!

Oh...


My...


God...


What a flashback...  I remember when they gave away a free mini cap-gun the week before I subscribed!  I was GUTTED!!
 

[Fran]

I was GUTTED!! 

There are some childhood traumas you never get over....

[redstu]

Still can't remember the name of the other organisation.

I'll have to search the attic now - shan't be getting much sleep until this memory is exorcised!

Did find plenty places to find first issues of warlord though!

[redstu]

Could it have been BULLET - seem to remember something about fireball.

Tiyu Trogjyls is a nice Estonian girl and doesn't vjrolnskth in public

Good grief Toad, I used to have a subscription to Warlord when I was a young un! 
That takes me back. 

Steve, that's my childhood that is!

My, what a blood-thirsty lot we were. If we weren't out killing Germans (who used to say "Teuffel! Eugghh!" when killed), it was the Japs (who used to say "Aieee!" when being slotted, usually by having their throats slit by a Commando knife from behind). I wonder what our Grandparents, who must have seen some terible things in the war, thought about the whole warbook culture prevailing at the time?

What with riding around on Choppers or watching the Double Deckers (as mentioned elsewhere today) it's a suprise any of us survived and became the responsible and broad-minded adults we are today... erm,,, ohh!
