US Navy / USMC Issue WWII-era Air Medals have become very scarce. This one is in excellent condition with a nice patina and no dings or scratches. This one also has the proper Navy / Marine Corps style 5-award silver star device on both the medal ribbon and on the accompanying WWII-era issue 1/2-inch ribbon bar, which is also in excellent condition and scarce.
