Trevor Arendall Posted March 27, 2021 Share #5 Posted March 27, 2021 Very nice medal, thank you for remembering the sacrifice of this young man. I cannot explain why someone would do that to the medal. Condition has never bothered me as the medal still serves its purpose. I have a BSM and PH to a man who was a sergeant and radio operator in C Company, 1st Battalion, 28th Infantry, 1st Infantry division. He was KIA during operation Muskegon on June 1st, 1966. Always have loved the look of the black lions insignia! Vincit amor patriae! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
