Bennett (Denton and Reddish): I am grateful for the opportunity to raise, in a short debate, the Government's failure to recommend or the Queen to award campaign medals to those who served in the Suez canal zone between 1951and 1954. I had hoped that there would be more time for the debate because many other hon. Members are concerned about the issue. I am pleased that my hon. Friend the Member for Wentworth (Mr. Healey) is present; no doubt he will hope to speak, and he has my permission and that of the Minister to do so briefly. My hon. Friend the Member for Hornchurch (Mr. Cryer) has also raised questions about the matter. I place on the record my appreciation of my constituent Mr. Davenport, who has been keeping me up to speed on the issue, and of the late Pip Newton, who led the delegation to press the case with my hon. Friend the Minister for the Armed Forces, 18 months or so ago, when my hon. Friend was a junior Minister. Mr. Newton worked extremely hard to press the campaign. I also wish to record my appreciation for Mr. Blackburn, Mr. Golder and Mr. Radford for all their work in documenting the case.2003 Daily Telegraph article - Thousands of British troops who served in the Suez canal emergency will finally be honoured, the government will announce tomorrow. The Queen has given royal assent to the issuing of a General Service Medal with a special clasp for veterans who served in Egypt from 1951-54. The MOD will spell out plans tomorrow to produce the medals. Veterans could get them as early as next month. An estimated 200,000 British troops served in the canal zone during the emergency - which preceded the Suez crisis of 1956 - and more than 300 people were killed. Campaign medals are not normally awarded more than five years after a conflict, but the prime minister, Tony Blair, has acknowledged the operation. The emergency in Oct 1951 when the Egyptian government unilaterally overturned a 1936 treaty with London that governed the number of British troops in the canal zone, triggering an anti-British guerrilla campaign.

Stanley McDougall VC ALS hand written letter dated 8th August 1961 comes with an actual part of ribbon from his Victoria Cross and autograph 4x2 page in the letter he states that the ribbon was pinned on him by King George V at Windsor Castle 1918. Stanley Robert McDougall, VC, MM (23 July 1889 7 July 1968) was an Australian recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest award given to British and Commonwealth forces for gallantry in the face of the enemy. On 28 March 1918 at Dernancourt, France, when an enemy attack succeeded in securing a foothold in the Allied line, McDougall charged the second wave single handed, killing seven men and capturing a machine gun, which he turned on the attackers, routing them and causing many casualties. He continued his attack until his ammunition ran out, when he seized a bayonet and charged again, killing three men and an officer. Then, using a Lewis gun, he killed many more of the enemy and made it possible for 33 prisoners to be taken. His prompt action saved the line and halted the enemys advance. The fighting ground where this took place was the location where his younger brother Wallace had been killed some nine months earlier. Eight days later he repelled another enemy attack at the same spot, for which he was awarded the Military Medal. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
