Re: Distinguished Flying Cross/Navy Cross
Hi Jeff, right now I'm unsure. I got a small deal because the guy usually only sells WWII but wanted someone to be able to add to a collection. Both examples are later than WWII. I'm currently in contact with the seller to find out where he picked it up and work down the line in the hopes to find out the original recipient

Re: Distinguished Flying Cross/Navy Cross
Hi Mike, sorry im late but, nice new cased additions to your collection. You have me greatly out-numbered on Ami awards. All I have are my Grandfathers awards-which were WWII Merchant Marine, and a few of my Dads stuff that has survived being thrown away (by my oldest Bro-who had an extreme case of The Stupids) as well as several family moves and two burglaries.
