Two stamps are being issued to mark 70 years since the end of World War Two.
At a special event at Kirk Michael School last week, Isle of Man Stamps and Coins also recognised the achievements of the Pahar Trust - a charity that works in Nepal.
Former Gurkha Major Dhan Chand and war veteran James Fenton were among those giving talks to young students.
Chairman of the Pahar Trust Howard Green says it's great to receive local support for the project:
