Thank you again for this translation Nick. After reading the article on the Jiandao/Gando massacre would it be correct to assume that this medal was given to participants of that battle?

I sincerely appreciate your thoughts on this.

I don`t think that it was intended only for participants of the 1920 incident.

Looks like propogandical memorabilia  

 

Best,

It makes sense since the award date is 13 years later.

 Thank you again,

Tom
