Garth Thompson Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share #3 Posted May 11, 2013 Garth, Thank you for sharing your research source with us! How far back do our records start? R, The records go from 1920 (WW1 recipients) to 1984. Numbers 1 through 24013 with some odd numbered later awards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMCR79 Posted May 11, 2013 Share #4 Posted May 11, 2013 The only drawback is that you can't search by name - I guess that feature was not considered important Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim B Posted May 11, 2013 Share #5 Posted May 11, 2013 I believe if you contact Steve Watts (OMSA), he is selling a bunch of books on these New York medals and volume 2 has the recipient information. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMCR79 Posted May 11, 2013 Share #6 Posted May 11, 2013 Tim, I have volume II and these is not a "look up cross by name" index - volume II is set up like volume I - If you have a medal number - you can find the name but not vice versa.

Garth Thompson Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share #14 Posted May 13, 2013 Thanks Garth !! much apprieciated so that means it was most likely a vietnam award ?? Sean, Not necessarily. It is probably not a WW1 guy but could easily be a WW2 vet that just applied later in his life. Garth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packard1969 Posted December 10, 2018 Share #18 Posted December 10, 2018 Hi Bill I have one numbered 1536 - wonder if you would be so kind to have a look for that one (might be a little later than 1983 though, but I live in hope!)

Terra Nova Posted December 14, 2018 Share #21 Posted December 14, 2018 Hi Bill, Thank you for your reply (above) and most helpful information in this string of 9 December. Initially, I had a little trouble navigating the site but eventually found it. The research into the individuals Service has begun. At the risk of taking the bucket to the well too often, I actually have a third NY CSC in my care - Number 2594. If I could impose on you once more, I would be most obliged for an identification. Thank you. with kindest regards and best wishes, Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted December 15, 2018 Share #24 Posted December 15, 2018 And the same can be said for the WW1 State Service (Faithful Service) 2605...not listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edelweisse Posted December 15, 2018 Share #25 Posted December 15, 2018 Thanks I see that the spell check said “ Kandahar” which I don’t know where that came from. The 2605 serial# medal is the medal with the soldier at present arms with the multi color red, black, yellow ribbon. I was hoping to trace it since it’s a low number. I just wanted to clarify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
