a patriotic brooch ?

I believe these would be private purchase items for wear on civilian clothing, worn to show the wearing as a decorated soldier.

Nice item but not official issue.

It is not an award so I would say private purchase, patriotic brooch.

Thank you for the thanks post, many new members seem to lack the most common of courtesy.

It is nice to see you not fall into this group. I wish you luck in all your endeavours.
