Dave,

Interesting that my father brought it back from Korea.

Thanks, the one on the right appears to match the uniform that you are showing.  I will look at the original photo and see if I can enlarge it enough to read what is on his shoulder.

Thanks again.

To anyone who can help:

These are my Great Uncles and Aunt.  Can anyone identify these uniforms.  My mother's family was originally from Scotland and Ireland.  Anybody out there know what I'm looking at?

To anyone who may know:

My father acquired this medal during his duty in Korea from August 1950 through June 1951.  Does anyone have any idea what it might be?

Thank you in advance.

This medal is collecting dust on  my shelf.  Should I keep this medal as a souvenir of my father's time in Korea or try to sell it?  Anyone have any offers out there?

Regards,

Lou

Thank you again!

Thank you, everyone!

Do you think it has any value to a collector or museum?

What year do you think this was minted?  1907?

Thank you!!  This has been really helpful to my understanding of what it is.  All these years, I thought it had something to do with the Korean War!

My father brought it back from Korea in 1951.  Any ideas what it might be?

Can anyone provide information about this picture?  This is a distant great-great uncle.  What is it a picture of?  About what year might this have been taken?  Is it definitely a Stahlhelm uniform?  Is there a rank noted?  Do the numbers on the collar represent a reserve unit?  What is the likelihood that the person in this picture would have become part of the SS?

Any help you can provide would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
