The picture shows this 1953 Yankee Division Veterans Association Convention Ribbon Medal. Beginning at the top there is a metal name pin with no paper insert. Hanging from it is a printed purple ribbon that reads: 34th ANNUAL CONVENTION Y.D. VETERANS ASSOCIATION JUNE 25 - 26 - 27 - 28 Hanging from the ribbon is a medallion that has a raised image of a World War I soldier. There is also an enameled "YD" emblem. The medal reads: 1953 NEW HAVEN, CONN. (Connecticut) The back of the medal has three logos that look like union marks. There is also a screw with the back section there. The ribbon measures 4-3/4" long and is in excellent condition with a small spot on the ribbon as can be seen in the scan. |
