aray bhai - a general without medals is no general - "muchh nahi tu kuch nahi"
these days there are medals for everything !!!

 

[Dream]

can you name the last few medals of Gen Kayani which i guess from UN ?

 

[TaimiKhan]

The last line of the medals are the ones which he got from other nations for his service. One is the Legion of Merit which france gave him, another is a Saudi King Abdul Aziz Medal of Excellence or something like that, i believe he got something from the NATO also, and one most probably the one which the US gave when he was inducted into the Hall of Fame at Fort Leavenworth from where he did some course, i believe staff course it was.

Rest of the above are all Pakistani ones, which you can find at Pakistan Army and other international medal showing websites.

As I said, the Legion of Merit was from France, not US.

Sorry my bad, i was talking about the Legion of Honor which the French gave to him:

Got confused as Legion of Merit got its impression from the French Legion of Honor

So he has gotten an American legion of merit, French Legion of Honor, Saudi King Abdul Aziz something of excellence, and one most probably either British or NATO.

Will he sell them to me? I'm willing to pay upto Rs 3,000.

The french one is nothing special, They give out one every month even to actors and what-not

The US one although seems to be quite honorary

The Legion of Honour has five classes. Not sure which class was awarded to Kayani. Also, I couldn't find a press coverage for the Legion of Honour being conferred upon him.
