    Somebody asked me what the ribbon colours of the WW1 medals meant ... I had to admit I didn't know !

    but I found this .... does anybody know if this is right ?

    Star ..... Watered Red White and Blue - to represent the colours of Britain France and the "Low Countries"

    BWM - Blue for the Rain - Black for Death - Brown for Mud

    Victory - "Double" Rainbow - ( the rainbow representing the international symbol of peace )
