Argonauts2 Posted July 27, 2016 Share #1 Posted July 27, 2016 I recently acquired this named Legion of Merit medal which I believe dates from the Vietnam era, but am not sure. I would appreciate any help with the following. 1. Based upon the drape and the case, when was this medal issued? 2. The medal is named to "Charles W. Cook" which is a pretty common name, is there any way to ID the owner of this medal. It was purchased at an estate sale near Frederick Maryland. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
