October 18, 20241 yr #21 Hello all I'm new at id of medals. I see many of you have ID these particular MARINE CORPS 2ND NICARAGUAN CAMPAIGN please teach me how to research the RIM ENGRAVED MEDALLIC ART No 913 to find out the soldier to whom it was awarded. Many thanks EllenMarie
October 18, 20241 yr #22 Hello, Those medals, like their Navy counterparts are almost impossible to identify by medal number. Both the Marine Corps and the Navy did not keep comprehensive medal rolls. Sometimes a Marine’s or sailor’s personnel file will show an entry when the medal was issued to him. However, you have to the know the man’s name and request his records from the NPRC in St Louis. What you see in this thread is a list of attributed Marine Corps medals that are in the hands of collectors. It can be difficult. Good luck in your search. Semper Fi, Bruce Linz
October 18, 20241 yr #24 M.No. 2801 Pvt. Joseph W. Czerniak USMC The only specific tie I have is the Expeditionary Medal came in a group that included his dog tag.
October 18, 20241 yr #25 Great looking group. Have searched the USMC meter rolls on an Ancestry. Sometimes they will show a medal issued and it may list the number. Is the Haitian Medal numbered? Is his GCM named.
