About The Persian Gulf War Era
Appreciation Recognition
The Persian Gulf War Era Recognition is a commemorative authorized to military veterans of all nations for recognition of support combatting interstate aggression during that portion of the Cold War era that involved military operations in the Persian Gulf against the Republic of Iraq.
The proposed medal design for Gulf War Era military service incorporates elements of the United States Persian Gulf War Service Medal, The United States Armed Forces Medal, The United States National Defense Service Medal, and The American Campaign Medal.
The East-West facing Eagle represents the dual-service contribution of military service in Persian Gulf, The United States or Europe confronting the global spread of Communism. Both Eagles riding atop and protecting the other's back respresents mutual support for safeguarding of the other's forces.
The closed top of the Gulf War Theater ribbon represents the armed containment of Communism on the battlefields of the Persian Gulf Theater of Operations.
No medal has yet been cast for this Military Service Appreciation award. The medal's original design is in the public domain.
