Description
This traditionally struck high relief challenge coin salutes the proud members of the U.S. Armed Forces who served the cause of freedom by fighting against the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait. Thanks to their patriotic service millions of Kuwaitis are free to live their lives free from the tyranny of Iraqi dictatorship.
The 41 day engagement was a model of operational excellence and efficiency, culminating in a mere 100 hour ground campaign that broke the Iraqi forces and won the day. Now veterans of this historic conflict can carry this meticulously crafted medallion as a firm reminder of proud service to their country and the millions of people saved.
The obverse features the American Bald Eagle, the ultimate symbol of America’s commitment to liberty. The reverse bears the emblems of the United States Armed Forces.
Each coin measures 1.75 inches (44mm) in diameter.
