Battle of Manila Bay "Dewey" campaign medal and numbered West Indies campaign medal pair
Recently 'out of the woodwork' and primarily
unresearched. The numbered campaign medal has not been verified to the
recipient but as these are an estate sale find in New England as a pair I feel
certain they have been together for the past many years. The Dewey is a
textbook example but has edge knocks and the pin was lost at some point and the
veteran soldered a safety pin type assembly on the reverse and repinned the
original ribbon.
Named to
THOMAS O'KEEFE APPRENTICE 2nd CLASS / USS CONCORD
O'Keefe verifies on the Concord's roster. A rare pair
that would be priced much higher if condition warranted and I'd had to pay more!
