Daytonian777 Posted February 7 Share #51 Posted February 7 I know that this is an ancient thread, but here is my opinion on some of the nicest: - Distinguished Service Cross (WWII vintage or older) - Earlier strikes of the Navy Expeditionary Medal - WWI U.S. Victory Medal - DFC (As many others have listed as well) - The earlier Slot/Crimp Brooch Navy Commendation Medal (Simple, but nice) - Earlier examples of the Air Force Commendation Medal - Medal for Humane Action (Berlin Airlift) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wharfmaster Posted February 8 Share #52 Posted February 8 Best design for a US Naval medal ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhcoleterracina Posted February 8 Share #53 Posted February 8 It's the DSC for me hands down. The MoH wouldn't make my top ten (sorry). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItemCo16527 Posted February 10 Share #54 Posted February 10 The Air Medal is my absolute favorite. Its best feature, in my opinion, is the compass rose and how the "north" fleur-de-lis is also used to attach the suspension ring. I also like that the ribbon's colors are taken from the branch of service colors of the Army Air Corps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
