Vietnam War 50th Anniversary Vietnam Civilian Service Commemorative Insignia
A half-century ago, millions of American men and women in all branches of the armed forces of the United States took the point in the struggle to prevent communist aggression and liberate the people of South Vietnam.
Just like those in the military, these civilians were bound together by a common enemy, fate, topography, and politics. Now, inspired by The United States of America Vietnam War Commemoration, those who belong to this unofficial association can wear this commemorative insignia as a badge of honor to signify that they provided essential aid, logistical, medical, and engineering support, risking their lives far from hearth and family to support those who, half a world away, were in the service of the nation. Worn by those who supported this most honorable endeavor, these Vietnam War 50th Anniversary Civilian Service Commemorative Insignia are minted in our proprietary bronze, are hand-finished with an antique patina, hand-enameled, protected with a lacquer coating, and feature a double safety clutch-back clasp to affix your insignia firmly to cap or lapel to display your service to the world.
This Civilian Service Commemorative Insignia features a fully enameled replica of the Civilian Service in Vietnam Medal ribbon, prominently displayed in the brilliant red, yellow, and blue. An American eagle surrounds the words “service, valor, sacrifice,” with the ordinal “50th” and the legend, “Vietnam War” completing the design.
The 50th Anniversary Civilian Service Veteran Commemorative Insignia is the thank you the men and women who put their lives at risk on America’s behalf deserved at the time, and are finally receiving now.
Whether you are buying this commemorative insignia for yourself, or you are planning to present one as a thank-you gift to someone you know who supported the Vietnam War effort, these insignia are intended to be displayed at veterans’ events and parades, at reunions, at clubs, and especially in daily life. Pinned to a lapel or a cap, it will be worn with pride by the civilians who were called to do their job in defense of freedom. Don’t be left out.
