Sorry
Tom! I really haven't a clue - I just published the newsletter that was sent to
me. Good luck - if you can get them to print a retraction and an accurate chart,
send it along and I'll publish it too.

[RC] USA Gold
Steph, i wondered if you'd say something on this
since you forwarded the information and made it public.
What part of this don't you understand?
1987 was an OPEN Championship, and after much discussion the USA was given the
Team Gold and now 18 years later they are trying to get it back? saying ???
.
Steph, if Belguim got the Gold in this data...Who
got Team Silver and Bronze? and what are our Medals to represent, and why do
we have them, if we didn't win them? And what about the Platter given to
the Gold Team? Is it a figment of my imagination, or a mistake on their
part they want to correct?
As I have said Lee Wittle will address
this matter to FEI.
Tom - it is indeed a fine medal and you should be proud! But
continental team medals can only be awarded to the continental teams. There
are Open medals, and Individual medals, but the teams competition is only
for the continent. e.g. Belgium could not take a team medal at a Pan
American championship. But they could take open and individual
medals.

Hello Ami, Its beyond special, its
precious. Its the ONLY USA GOLD TEAM won abroad. To see that
it is not recognized makes the plan simple. To correct that
mistake.
Further communication on this subject will be
by the Team Chef d'Equipe, at the time, Lee Wittle.
