Sal Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 (edited) Looking for some help to ID this one. My friend in Baghdad gave it to me & said it had something to do with rewarding Iraqi women for their sacrifices during the war effort. Any ideas or information?? Thanks in advanceTony Edited December 16, 2007 by Sal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they are poppping up on the internet for $20.00. dollars.Its as if Saddam gave them out like water: for a small donation for the war effort.SSG Luna, Lorenzo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Boonzaier Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Pretty prominent hooters for a woman on a middle east medal...I guess certain sections of the population would get a bit angry about that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The labour medal certainly was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully my kids or grandchildren will be into them! RegardsPaulPaulThat would be the best thing. I might put my collection in my will to go to some sort of Iraqi Campaign War Museum. For the world to see in remembrance of Iraqi Freedom Vets. My children realy don't understand collecting Militaria and might part with it. I would want all of it to stay together for others to see a better understanding of Iraqs military history.Thank you Lorenzo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
