Marshals' Badge

A dark wet and windy day today, so it was decided we would not venture outside Maison MD --- but I needed a Blip.  
I thought my Box might help me out - and it did.
Many years ago I was a volunteer marshal for the RAC Rally of Great Britain on some of the special forest stages.  You normally ended up wet and muddy, but it was great fun.
As a 'reward' for services rendered, all marshals got a special RAC Rally badge, and on subsequent years given a 'year bar' to dangle below the badge.  This is mine.  The years are1973/74/75  -  in every one of these years Timo Makinen and Henry Liddon were victorious in a Ford Escort RS1600/1800.  
I did in fact marshal on the 1976 event, but I seem to have lost the relevant 'year bar'..... I have very happy memories of these events :-)
