Book Type: C BY Ltc. John Strandberg, Order early to get signed/numbered copies! This monumental work, which has long been out of print, spans over two centuries and illustrates in striking color the evolution of U.S. Military decorations from 1782 to the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal in 2003. In this comprehensive reference, not only are the obverse, reverse, and appropriate rim markings illustrated in full color, it also states eligibility for the award and gives historical background. An added treat are dozens of period photos of the decorations being worn. This new expanded edition is a result of continued years of research and upgrading of photographs and has 176 more pages then the previous edition. The author has also been able to expand the coverage of known rim number styles and number ranges for Army, Navy, and Marine Corps campaign medals. With modern digital technology, all medals and ribbons have been color-corrected to give you the most accurate and detailed images. Although the first edition was highly praised, this new edition is without a doubt the best book ever done no the subject! Although there are an additional 176 pages of color, the price of the new edition is the same as the first edition! 1293 photos, most in color. 560 pp. |
