Man you got a awesome deal, I bought the both of mine for $250.00 each. They both came with the mini Order and case. I seen one of the first class neck orders sale for $965.00 last year.

My 2nd Class I received from an Iraqi Brigadier General that was in the Iraqi Airforce. He was Awarded it for his service in the war with Israel.

That's the great part Lorenzo...you have the hisstory and provenance with your orders.....you ever think of documenting all in a book or your own web page? Your experience in Iraq coupled with your collection and the contacts you have made is sure to be interesting to many many more people...

As always I enjoy seeing your pieces....
