Army Ribbon Identification from WW 2

[spirithorse]

Can anyone help me identify this WW2 Army Ribbon, please?

He served in the Europe Africa Middle East Theater, the Asia Pacific Theater, and the China-India-Burma Theater.

For some reason, even though the file is only 20kb in .gif format, it will not up-load but, I'll send the scanned image
to anyone that may be able to identify it for me who will send me their e-mail address.

Thanks and God Bless! Spirithorse    spirithorse55 at hotmail dot com

The problem might be with the .gif format. Can you open it in whatever image software you use, and then save or export it as a .jpg?

Thanks, Joe,

Wayne from this forum made the same suggestion so, I'll try to re-post.

God Bless! Spirithorse

If you don't get the image loaded, try the Wikipedia article "Awards and decorations of the United States Armed Forces".  The have an extensive list of the ribbons and awards, including photos.

Spirithorse send me this photo. Not sure why he could not post it but here is the photo of the ribbon in question. I don't recognize it but maybe someone else can.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Spirithorse for allowing me the opportunity to assist you.

The bottom one is a WWII Victory Medal. T one you are looking for is not a military issue but  an unofficial VFW medal

Thank, jblock,

I have never heard of unofficial VFW medals (or ribbons).
I found a photo on a site called vfwstore.org thanks to your
info about unofficial ribbons or medals.
The uniform, medals, ribbons, etc are going to be displayed in a
museum and we want as much verified information as possible.

Thanks! Spirithorse
