Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Indeed I enjoy it. The award document looks amazing and you gave it a nice spot.

A very nice item.
Do allow me one observation, though: It's really not an award document at all.
This is simply a decorative commemorative certificate stating the time period and duty station of the soldier's active military service.

You are correct it is not an award. I should have stated a unit service commemoration or certificate.
