Vietnam Navy Aircrew Medal Grouping 8x Place Medal Bar W Valor & Air Medal Rare

Description

Vietnam Navy Aircrew Medal Grouping 8x Place Medal Bar W Valor & Air Medal Rare. This is a really nice vietnam navy aircrew medal 2 row full size medal bar. This was recently found in the jacksonville florida area in a shadow box with a burial flag. Most likely the shadow box was put together after the funeral but the medals are late 60s early 70s mounting so they are original to the period of which he served. Navy aircrew groupings with multiple air medals and a achievement medal for valor are very hard to find. Also included are his rank pins and his aircrew wings full size but the pins have been removed from the aircrew wings. Also of note at some point i would say late 80s or 90s the veteran found out he was entitled to the navy expeditionary medal and took apart the top bar and added it you can see were he stitched it back together. He must have found out all those years later he was entitled to it.
You get the following
3x rank pins
1x aircrew wings with pins removed
2x full size medal bars with period medals
Medals as follows
Air Medal w 3x additional awards
Navy achievement medal w Valor
Navy good conduct medal
Navy expeditionary medal
National defense medal
Armed forces expeditionary medal
Vietnam service w silver star
Svn republic service medal
All medals are 60s or very early 70s production examples minus the expeditionary medal which is late 80s or 90s. Im not a fan that it was added but im sure it was done by the veteran himself.
Really an excellent set that is virtually impossible to find. Sadly no name.
