Nice set of medals! The Airmedal and the WWII Victory Medal are the 1946 style crimp brooch and the Good Conduct and the American Defence Service Medal are the earlier Slot Brooch style.
It is not common to find engraved Good Conduct medals. In general the only time you see that is when a soldier was killed and the government sent all of his medals to the family. Those would all have been engraved by the government. Obviuosly there were some soldiers who later on had them engraved but they are the exception.
Cheers
