What are the five medals that Prince Edward displays?, what branch of the armed forces did he serve in,and what rank did he have.? He always seems to be kept away from the public.

I'm surprised you didn't recognise the Commemorative Medal for the Centennial of Saskatchewan
Useful link, fluffy - I remember his being in the Marines for 3 months, he wasn't cut out for it.
ive got one of those, alongside my medal of honour for combat against the giant spider hordes of ullkatchain

Thank you mccfluff , very informative cheers.
Didn't he get out of the services as soon as he possibly could obviously wasn't suited. Seem to think he went into theatre.

Prince Officer Cadet then methyl, never heard of that rank before,or was it created just for him. I learn something new every day.
The thing with the Canadian honours is that it would be impolite to Canada not to wear them. I doubt very much that the Palace got on to Saskatchewan and said "Our Eddie ain't got much in the gong department, how about whipping him up a few honours while he's over there?"
His mother gave him three of 'em....

He's just not suited for service life. Not all of us are.

Woofgang, very funny.
But seriously. if another country honours you with a medal, its rude not to wear it.
not really a country, woofgang, more a prairie
There is a strange protocol attached to wearing overseas medals, Mr Cake cannot wear all of his on certain occasions.

I'll see if I can find out what the deal is.

jno, there are over 45,000 people who would disagree with you, if they were alive.
If the discussion is about members of the Royal family and medals where and why does the Princess Royal get the medals and/or the right to wear them? Her display gets more like one of those old Kremlin Generals each time she is at an official occasion. I do like and support the royal family but that gets me grumbling every time.

I just think they like to dress up, and rummage around in the toy box for uniforms and medals, I wonder if wee Geordie has a medal by now ' just for being born ' ? :) when William got married he looked like an extra from a gilbert & Sullivan opera,
