BAIL RING IS CUT ON REVERSE SIDE AT THE 3:00 POSITION AS EXPECTED W/ A U. RIBBON DRAPE TESTED UV NEGATIVE. The Navy version of the Philippine Campaign Medal was established on June 27, 1908 by special order of the United States Navy Department. The obverse (front) of this medal was the same for both services, while the reverse included the service name. To be awarded the Philippine Campaign Medal, a Navy or Marine Corps service member was required to perform service in the Philippine Islands between February 4, 1899 and December 31, 1904. Such service was required to be either ashore in support of Army units or on board certain vessels assigned to the area of the Philippine Sea. The Navy version of the Philippine Campaign Medal was as a one-time award with no devices authorized. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do for you!
