MEDALS OF AMERICA EST. 1976 Korean Presidential Unit Citation Commemorative Anodized Medal - Military Collectible, Veteran Gift & Display Piece for History Enthusiasts

The United States Government, State Governments, Veterans Organizations, private mints and individuals have a long tradition of striking commemorative medals to recognize and honor specific military victories, historical events and military service to our great Republic. Until the 20th Century the United States did not issue military service medals recognizing service by veterans in the different wars, battles, campaigns or other significant military events. Commemorative medals reflect typical American ingenuity and spirit, where local government, veterans associations and private leadership step forward to facilitate honoring service and deeds the federal government fails to recognize. Although unofficial in nature and usually struck by private mints or associations, commemorative medals provide a very tangible memento to honor all veterans and families for their service and sacrifice. The Korean Presidential Unit Citation Commemorative Medal was created in 1950s for all who served in the Korean War. Click here to purchase attachments for your WWII Victory Commemorative Medal
