It is the Philippine Presidential Unit Citation ribbon.

I have 14179.

I also have one of these bells. Is there a date on the box? I placed mine as WW II so hoping the box may be able to confirm.

You may want to include comments for 1475 John Thomas Kelly. He was US Navy (Chief Pharmacist Mate and later Lieutenant Hospital Corps)

Here are some more of My GCMs 1114......William McIntosh 3111.......George D. Bontron 7850.......James W. Kuhns 9729........Axel G.E. Piltz 9951........Howard Wilson 15690.... William J. Michel 30493......Bernard Neal Dyer

Soochow Creek and Yangtze Barrier Medal pair named to Gail Lawrence Harp, Gunners Mate onboard the USS Oahu. He went on to become a Chief Gunners Mate and served through Korea.

Thank you very much!

My M1 helmet with heat stamp 866B has this chin strap that does not look like any other I can find. Can anyone identify this style.

Anyone?

# 1 is a Captain. #2 is a Commander with what looks to be a Command at Sea Badge. #3 Is a Commander or Captain with what looks to be a Diving Officer Badge.

I seem to recall some where it was discussed when Spanish American War Veterans were allowed to join the Farragut Veterans Association. Does anyone here know of the reference for this? My badge belonged to Landsman Otto F Jentz of the USS Brooklyn.

I have had this medal for awhile and have no idea what it is for. Was thinking it may have been a GAR navy membership but don't know. Any ideas?

This is an outstanding group! As I also collect New York Naval Militia this is really special to me. The Yankee Sampson should be a Phase II.
