In reply to: jim brindley 's message, "upside down" on 4/03/08 8:00am

According to my father who served throughout the war and after, wearing the badge upside down was a sign of protest at the dearth of jobs when the war ended and stood for Not Wanted. He always said that in public opinion MN were heroes during the war and reverted to scum 48 hrs after it ended
