One of the guys who comes in all the time and hits as many state sales as anyone I have ever known, showed up with this Monday.

 

Out of a small USMC bring back grouping.

 

There is either one helluva great story about this soldier and the Marine just picked it up at the end of the war. Either way it is cool.....

It came out of a US Marine's estate.

Did he get it from the officer like that or was it put together? Because the ribbons are not in order and are just mixed up randomly.

I agree the order is incorrect & points at post war put together

Interesting ribbon bar.. I have no knowledge of Japanese ribbons but the bottom ribbon, 2nd from the right ( yellow, blue, white with red center, white, blue, yellow) looks exactly like the Army Reserve Components Achievement Medal ribbon..

It is the Inner Mongolia National Foundation Merit Medal. Neat how it is very close to the Army Reserve ribbon in style.

Thanks for the information.. Yes it is intersting how some of the ribbons are similar in other nations

I agree they are not in order.

 

Can't ask the Marine as he is dead as it came out of his estate sale.

How many times have we seen an American ribbon bar that is both unusual and out of order? I have a merchant marine air force in from of me right now....and have photos of a navy guy wearing a CIB...I wouldn't right it off
