Australian Police Medal

Correct

On Australia Day 2009 I was awarded an APM as part of the Australia Day Honours. A small number are awarded in each State each year for "Distinguished Service". Recipients may use the post-nominal APM.
Biggles, you have the next TLA.

Yep, I can see the resemblance, at least in the head.

And congrats to the two bike nuts. Well researched!

Same here.

I wonder who makes all those horrible looking bowling shoes

You obviously haven't tried wearing them. They're like cardboard replicas of 1920s gangsters' footwear.

Correct. AMF controlled Harley Davidson from 1969 to 1981.
