Yeah, I made a eVetRecs request today. What kind of medals were origonally issued in the 1950s? Bronze or Anodized? I was under the impression they were bronze. So, it's a mater of authentic very stay looking good forever. Or in Arcade speak NOS vs. reproduction?

One place I found will tie them together so they all connect for a uniform.
How about replacement/recreation dog tags? Anyone know what Korea era dog tags looked like/what info they had on them?
