Absolutely!  A letter for any of the awards mentioned (with the exception
possibly of the Undine, which is a personal award given by the Queen) is
certainly a good idea.  And as far as the QOC goes, I know of a couple of
people that have received more than one.  Now whether or not that is the way
things are supposed to happen or not doesn't change the fact that they did.
