Land Army WWII

Hi, I have just spoken to my mother in law who is in her late '80s on the phone. She told me that she will be getting a medal/badge for her role in the Land Army. I have looked everywhere on the internet about it. Are you able to show me a site, or give me some information about it? She also said something about there only being four left, and I don't know if she meant in her village, or in the whole of the UK.

Can you please give me some information? It is so hard when my husband and I are living on the other side of the world...

Did a quick search on the BBC and found this, there is a video link regarding the medal

Yes, they had a whole section on this on the BBC News the other day. I think it's excellent - just such a shame that it's so late after the event really!!
