World War Medals

ORIGINAL WORLD WAR I MILITARY ORDER OF THE WORLD WARS MEDAL W/ GOLD TONE SPLIT WRAP BROOCH W/ LOCKING CATCH. The Military Order of the World War was created in 1919 at the suggestion of General of the Armies John J. Pershing as a fraternity for American military officers coming out of the Great War. Two decades later, when the USA became involved in WWII the organization name was pluralized to its current title of Military Order of the World Wars. Though the Order’s title has not changed since 1945, it remains an officers’ society welcoming new qualified members in current military service, retired military service, or former military service and has members from the Korean War, Vietnam War, Gulf War, War in Afghanistan, War in Iraq, and peacetime service. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do for you!
