This is one of the most educational videos that I have ever seen on United States Military Medals. Your professionalism and attention to details is what makes your company head and shoulders above any other. Thank you so much for the education!
Howdy Colonel, thank you for bringing attention to our greatest “silent” generation. We lose more and more of these veterans every day and the history of WW2 goes with them. Of the couple of WW2 veterans that I have met, they were so old and in such a condition they were unable to speak of their time in war. Another veteran I found out only after his passing that he was a highly decorated Marine, during his time with us here you would have never known. You are doing an amazing job Sir. Gig’Em
I have my Grandpa's World War 2 service painting with a hand carved American Flag and eaglewood frame. It has the certificate it was painted in cook county illinois
Your study is the coolest mancave ever!!! I love that the first display you show is the 5ID.

@@Sasha-gd8xi thank you very much u are a true Patriot
I found your Great Uncle on the Congressional Medal of Honor database. And from reading the medal citation he is a hero unlike any other. Semper Fi from this poolee who's about to leave for Parris Island in 5 days
Nice. I need to do this with my grandfathers WW2 medals.
Very informative and thanks for showing examples as I'm laying out my father's medal case.
Thanks for the information. This will help me put together a display for my Grandfather's medals from WWII and Korean War that I recently inherited from my father. He did morse code communications on air craft cariers. I even have his keyer in perfect condition.
That is unique!
Very informative; I went through the VA to have my father's citations re-issued. It was free, but it took four months and that was pre-covid!
Amazing medals. Wow. Breathtaking
My dad like many WWII veterans would not talk much about his service. I have his uniform and I thank you for your explanation. Looks like he was entitled to wear more ribbons than he did. I have only found one actual medal in a box and that is his air medal. It was awarded to him seven times. He was a B-26 pilot and flew 44 missions over Germany. Six more missions and I believe he would have been awarded the distinguished flying cross. During the gulf war I asked him if he wanted to get in 6 more runs and he said he would but the Army was out of B-26s. 😀. Just a few weeks ago I found a box of letters he sent to his parents during the war and after while he was waiting to come home. There were a lot of details he didn’t talk about that I never knew. Knowing my dad, he probably knew he entitled to wear a lot more ribbons but didn’t because that’s the way he was.
As a German I'd like to express my special "gratitude" to your father for firebombing our cities and killing many thousands of innocent civilians. He is a true "hero".....
It was nice to see that our military gave honor to our troops no matter where they were to show a legacy of their service. Todays military has become convoluted and thus makes it difficult to impossible to be awarded for the achievements they participated in.
My father was a chaplains assistant during ww2 but know little to nothing about his combat. Things should be passed to the next generation but his medals I know nothing about. I'll save this for a time when I can afford hearing aids since I'm not hearing much. Thanks
Looks in great shape for an 80s year old
cause it is not 80 years old... that is why!.
interesting video, I never knew what the US medals really looked like and what kinds there were. Thank you!
Sir. Outstanding. Thank you.
I pined all the medals received on their berial flags. Five flags total. One from ww1, two from ww2, one from korea and one spaning from korea to 70s.
That first navy uniform is a PO1 not a Chief
Just for clarification: at 16:06, you referred to this Navy “crow” as a “Chief Petty Officer”, however, the three red lower chevrons represents a First Class Petty Officer (E-6), not a Chief Petty Officer (E-7). The Chief Petty Officer rating badge (“crow”), would have, and still does, an Upper curved Chevon in addition to the lower three “V” style Chevrons. Keep up the good work.
Amazing medals..
I have tons of inherited medals/decorations. Yugo commerative medals, Philippines, France, merchant marine, etc. I the 1914-15 Brit star; 1882 Egypt medal ; Bavarian kingdom cross-help!!
check out the Orders and Medals society web site.
EXCELLENT video. Thank You!
I have been looking for this
Very nice collection you have there thank you for showing this very nice I'm from England but I'm very interested in American ww2 history i triying to get an original purple heart but haven't seen them are thay rare?
no they are not, you can obtain a new one at www.usmedals.com
How do I go about getting a replacement Legion of Merit medal for my Dad? I have his certificate but never saw the medal.
You’re doing great work
EXCELLENT VIDEO!!!
Was it cellophane to protect some ribbons from rainwater?
A lot of WW2 vets used plastic just to keep the ribbons clean.
@@veteransmedalsworkshop-moa4376 Thanks for your response sir!
Any idea on how I can track down my grandfather's WWII Army records to find out about what he did to get a bronze and silver star? His unit and battles he was in?
@@veteransmedalsworkshop-moa4376 Thank you! Unfortunately he did pass in 1993 and received several of the medals after he was gone.
Will this record inquiry show me where he went to basic training and his unit and what he did in what foreign countries? Thanks again
its gold or not 1941 1945 PLEASE comfirm cuz i have no idea plz...
@@r0meoh0t3l6 Check with an Army recruiter, to see if he can get you a copy of his DD214. He should at least point you in the right direction.

@@veteransmedalsworkshop-moa4376, Class of ‘80, 24-year AF vet. Nice to meet you.
WHERE SHOULD THE GRAND CROSS OF HOMAGE BE PLACED
A ribbon from the philippines.WOW
The Germany Occupation medal is one that is odd to me- the medal itself is stunning- love the Remagen bridgehead but the ribbon is rather bland, if not outright ugly.
Better to say awarded or received than won
yeah, I agree with you..Need to polish that up. thanks!
Super 👍
A minor correction, intended constructively: The CIB is correctly called the "Combat Infantryman Badge", not the "Combat Infantry Badge" nor the "Combat Infantryman’s (nor Infantrymen’s) Badge". And not to split hairs, but the USAAF was called the "Army Air Forces" (i.e. plural), not the "Army Air Force".
You showed several WWII medals my father had, including one or two that he never knew he’d been authorized. (He was a USAAF B-24 pilot.) I’ll look for your books.
You are absolutely correct;
It is the combat infantryman badge. I sometimes get the moving a little too quickly.
@@veteransmedalsworkshop-moa4376 - All three words are capitalized, by the way. 😉
I have also some world war ll medals???
