ALTHOUGH many Suez veterans have received their medals for service in the Canal Zone from the early 1950s there are many who are still waiting, and others who don't know how to apply.
I have written a book 'Suez: The Hidden Truths' detailing the appalling conditions we had to contend with defending the canal against a hostile foe.
If any ex-Suez personnel want details of how to apply for a medal give me a ring on 01772 322717.
Next-of-kin can also apply for their loved ones, if deceased.
