This listing is more aimed for those who seek to preserve history almost lost to time. Now found within the folds of modern marketplaces, I attempt to find as much information about their service, along with photos, obituaries, any other information pertaining to the individual. May God bless those past and present who sacrifice so much for us, and may their sacrifice never be in vain. Here is an Army Good Conduct Medal that is named to Phillip C McManus. He was born on October 26, 1924 in Pomona, California. He lived in California, going through middle, high, to Junior/Community College before registering for the draft on December 20, 1942, volunteering around June of 1943 (Progress-Bulletin), and officially enlisting on September 28, 1943. He found himself in the Air Corps Reserves in Sheppard Field Air Corps Base in Wichita Falls, Texas. The base conducted basic training in eight different schools of the Air Corps including Glider Mechanics School, but the primary focus was to train Aircraft Mechanics. McManus was then stationed at Lowry Field in Denver, Colorado in 1944 (Progress-Bulletin) which used to be an Air Force military base. At the time of his discharge he held the rank of Sergeant with the specialty of Airplane Armorer Gunner, to which he made inspections and repairs on aircraft armament such as bomb release mechanisms, cannons, guns, equipment, and more. He was part of a bombardment group, but the quality of his DD212 & Discharge Certificate is so poor, it’s hard to tell what it could be. The paper trail effectively ends there. His Army Good Conduct Medal. Replacement Ribbon Bars American Camp. Copy of his DD212, Discharge Certificate, & VA Benefits Documents. Copy of all documents pictured. The medal is in good condition, has a circle marking from an adhesive tag. The ribbon has a bit of wear too.

RE-RIBBON DRAPE TESTED U. The Mexican Service Medal is an award of the United States military which was established by General Orders of the United States War Department on December 12, 1917. The Mexican Service Medal recognizes those service members who performed military service against Mexican forces between the dates of April 12, 1911 and June 16, 1919. To be awarded the Mexican Service Medal, a service member was required to perform military duty during the time period of eligibility and in one of the following military engagements. Veracruz Expedition: April 21 to November 23, 1914. Punitive Expedition into Mexico: March 14, 1916 to February 7, 1917. Buena Vista, Mexico: December 1, 1917. San Bernardino Canyon, Mexico: December 26, 1917. La Grulla, Texas: January 8 – January 9, 1918. Pilares, Chihuahua: March 28, 1918. Nogales, Arizona: November 1-26, 1915, or August 27, 1918. El Paso, Texas and Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua: June 15 – June 16, 1919. The United States Navy issued the Mexican Service Medal to members of the Navy and Marines who participated in any of the above actions, as well as to service members who served aboard U. Naval vessels patrolling Mexican waters between April 21 and November 26, 1914, or between March 14, 1916, and February 7, 1917. The Mexican Service Medal was also awarded to any service member who was wounded or killed while participating in action any against hostile Mexican forces between April 12, 1911 and February 7, 1917. Although a single decoration, both the Army and Navy issued two different versions of the Mexican Service Medal. The Army Mexican Service Medal displayed an engraving of a yucca plant, while the Navy version depicts the San Juan de Ulúa fortress in Veracruz harbor. Both medals displayed the annotation “1911 – 1917″ on the bottom of the medal. The Mexican Service Medal was a one time decoration and there were no service stars authorized for those who had participated in multiple engagements. For those Army members who had been cited for gallantry in combat, the Citation Star was authorized as a device to the Mexican Service Medal. There were no devices authorized for the Navy’s version of the decoration. A similar decoration, known as the Mexican Border Service Medal also existed for those who had performed support duty to Mexican combat expeditions from within the United States.
