I've heard its about as big as a dinner plate but very thin.

Won't this look odd if I wear it with miniatures?

Why wear your RGJ medal underneath the top row?

Wear it in the top row! and show your pride for the Regiment..we were shafted as to the loss of the name and Regiment?   I will be keeping mine on the the top row, not hiding it to keep a few old fart Generals happy.... Celer et Audax!!!

Well said that man! Wear your RGJ medal with pride, after all we earn't it and as mentioned we were SHAFTED ! to lose our name and Royal title and to bin Battalions is a disgrace...A couple of other units permanently in the press left unscathed you would think it was them alone that built our proud history!.

Celer Et Audax
