Pip Posted August 15, 2019 Share #1 Posted August 15, 2019 I bought a group that is on the way to me that has an Air Medal included but the ribbon is gray instead of blue. Is this normal and just faded somehow? Sorry for the poor pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY Militaria Posted August 15, 2019 Share #2 Posted August 15, 2019 I would say faded from light exposure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMariner Posted August 15, 2019 Share #4 Posted August 15, 2019 I agree 100% most likely stored in a shadow box or frame by the window that got a ton of light! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blacksmith Posted August 15, 2019 Share #5 Posted August 15, 2019 Makes it look like the drape of an Order of the Sacred Treasure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KASTAUFFER Posted August 16, 2019 Share #9 Posted August 16, 2019 Did you get the named Purple Heart? There was a Caterpillar Club pin and a Stalag tag in other auctions. Kurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pip Posted August 17, 2019 Author Share #11 Posted August 17, 2019 I just realized the tag was in the same auction and I somehow missed it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
