From what I can see, looks just fine. And a 4th AF uniform isn’t what is typically created by put together artists (stateside non-combat unit) And they aren’t “dress blues”. -

My understanding of BBB Silver Star naming is that those medals issued by the War Department retroactively for valor citations prior to 1932 were engraved to the recipient. Medals for WW2 actions issued to next of kin of KIA soldiers were also officially engraved. Other BBB Silver Stars were issued to soldiers in the field in WW2. These medals are mostly unnamed as field headquarters did not have the time or capability to name medals. They are legitimate issues, just harder to identify. General Orders that link a medal number to a recipient are excellent sources of identification. Dog tags or other clues to a recipient's name can help in researching records to verify the award. The engraving request cards enabled field recipients to send their medals back to the Army to have their name officially engraved. My observations on price and desirability is that officially named medals are more valuable than unnamed but attributed medals. Unnamed, unattributed BBB Silver Stars are more valuable than other WW2 numbered Silver Stars. Mike -

I could almost swear I saw the 2nd Engineer patch on a few on Kandahar Air Base in 2012.
