Here we have a beautiful set of Vietnam Era medals. This set includes a Bronze Star, Vietnam Military Merit Medal and Republic of Vietnam Service Medal. It also includes a Combat Infantry Badge (CIB) with Wreath and a few other miscellaneous items (airborne pins, medal bars, etc.) These items were on display at some point and have red felt glued to the back of them where they were secured to the felt previously. It appears it can be removed once heated up but I do not tamper with collectables so I will leave that up to the buyer. The photos are of the exact lot you will receive so bid with confidence!
Bronze Star Medal Criteria: A U.S.
Armed Forces individual military decoration and the fourth-highest award
for bravery, heroism or meritorious service. Awarded to a member of the
military who, while serving in or with the military of the United
States after December 6, 1941, distinguished him or herself by heroic or
meritorious achievement or service, not involving participation in
aerial flight, while engaged in an action against an enemy of the United
States; while engaged in military operations involving conflict with an
opposing foreign force; or while serving with friendly foreign forces
engaged in an armed conflict against an opposing armed force in which
the United States is not a belligerent party. Awards may be made for
acts of heroism, performed under circumstances described above, which
are of lesser degree than required for the award of the Silver Star.
Awards may also be made to recognize single acts of merit or meritorious
service. The required achievement or service while of lesser degree
than that required for the award of the Legion of Merit must
nevertheless have been meritorious and accomplished with distinction. To
be eligible for the Bronze Star Medal, a military member must be
getting hostile fire/imminent danger pay, during the event for which the
medal is to be awarded. The Bronze Star Medal is typically referred to
by its full name (including the word "Medal") to differentiate the
decoration from bronze service stars which are worn on campaign medals
and service awards
