Dirk Posted September 26, 2021 Share #1 Posted September 26, 2021 Thanks to a fellow forum member we were able to reunite the Kester Group....Kester was a pre-war China Marine bandsman. What makes this one so unique is the “Siege of Chien Men” spoof medal. Very similar to a SooChow Creek medal in construction. Until the Chien Men medal was posted we were unaware of its existence....and so another spoof medal is added to the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manayunkman Posted October 26, 2021 Share #4 Posted October 26, 2021 Outstanding, rare and historically interesting ensemble of medals and insignia. Is there anything else that might have been separated from the group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share #5 Posted October 26, 2021 Thanks guys….I will bet there is more out there somewhere from this Marine…but the spoof medal and diamond are the stars of this grouping imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
