After you have consumed your Christmas Dinner and watched The Italian Job on Christmas afternoon for the umpteenth time, here is a little fun challenge for you all!
Do I now have the QSA with the shortest impressed name on it's rim in my collection?
5 letters and two full stops will take some beating!
I look forward to your replies.
Steve

Hi Mike,

You just have to look don't you! Ahaha!

You came very close with N. H. BIRT!

There are not many QSAs to civilians , from those I have seen, without the prefix MR. Another little quirk to ponder.

That is an impressive number of Smiths, it has to be said!

Cheers,
Steve

I have a QSA to a "C. Rex" Steve - I don't know if anyone can top that?

Rory

Hi Rory,

I think you may well have it there!
Cannot see C. REX being beaten.
Unless someone else knows different .......

Cheers,
Steve

I have DCM groups to A. Daw, a private in the Loyal North Lancs and H. H. Say, a sergeant-major in the Gloucesters.

Edit: I was thinking of shortest names rather than shortest naming.
