Riley1965 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 (edited) As much as I hated Saddam for killing my friend on the USS Stark in 1987, I am recreating his Medal Bar. I will have it mounted with pieces of one of his bunkers in Baghdad. My friends Son is a Lt. Colonel and sent me a small bag of concrete from the bunker under one of his main palaces. So far I have two medals and three on the way. I'm working from the last medal to the 1st. I have the Medal for cooperation, 1st class and the 1921-1971 Golden jubillee medal, 1st Class. On the way to me are The Medal for the 1973 war with Israel, The Medal for the 17 July Revolution in 1968 & The Medal of Peace with the Kurds (Gilt). Next three will be: 1.The Medal for the Palestine War, 1948-492.Medal for Crushing the Northern Rebellion 3.The Medal for the 14 Ramadan Revolution, 1963Two of the last three will be inexpensive. The Wisam al-Jadara First Class will cost a bit. I will definately mount them in a frame with the pieces of his bunker as a reminder that Brian's death has been avenged, though almost a couple decades later.

2xvetran Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Doc, contact ammarjwwad@hotmail.com. you may be surprised at the price. I think it will still be expensive, but perhaps not as much as you expect (depending of course on what you expect ) Scott. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
