ORIGINAL 1930S UNITED STATES ARMY INDIAN WARS CAMPAIGN MEDAL, FULL WRAP BROOCH W/ OPEN C CATCH. RIBBON DRAPE TESTED UV NEGATIVE AS SHOWN IN PHOTO #12. The Indian Campaign Medal is a decoration established by War Department General Orders 12, 1907. The medal was retroactively awarded to any soldier of the U. Army who had participated in the American Indian Wars against the Native Americans between 1865 to 1891. The Indian Campaign Medal was established by War Department General Orders 12 in 1907. It was created at the same time as the Civil War Campaign Medal. The initial ribbon was all red; however, two black stripes were added in December 1917 because of the similarity to a ribbon used by the French for the French Legion of Honor. Campaign streamers of the same design as the service ribbon are authorised for display by units receiving campaign credit participation for Indian Wars as early as 1790. The inscriptions for streamers displayed on the organizational flag will be as indicated in the unit’s lineage and honours. The inscriptions for the 14 streamers displayed on the Army flag are listed in AR 840-10 and AR 600-8-22. The Code of Federal Regulations declares service in the following campaigns as requirements for award of the Indian Campaign Medal. Southern Oregon, Idaho, northern California, and Nevada between 1865 and 1868. Against the Comanches and confederate tribes in Kansas, Colorado, Texas, New Mexico, and Indian Territory between 1867 and 1875. Modoc War between 1872 and 1873. Against the Apaches in Arizona in 1873. Against the Northern Cheyennes and Sioux between 1876 and 1877. Nez Perce War in 1877. Bannock War in 1878. Against the Northern Cheyennes between 1878 and 1879. Against the Sheep-Eaters, Piutes, and Bannocks between June and October, 1879. Against the Utes in Colorado and Utah between September 1879 and November 1880. Against the Apaches in Arizona and New Mexico between 1885 and 1886. Against the Sioux in South Dakota between November 1890 and January 1891. Against hostile Indians in any other action in which United States troops were killed or wounded between 1865 and 1891. The Code of Federal Regulations describes the medal as follows. The medal of bronze is 114 inches in diameter. On the obverse is a mounted Indian facing sinister, wearing a war bonnet, and carrying a spear in his right hand. Above the horseman are the words Indian Wars, and below, on either side of a buffalo skull, the circle is completed by arrowheads, conventionally arranged. On the reverse is a trophy, composed of an eagle perched on a cannon supported by crossed flags, rifles, an Indian shield, spear, and quiver of arrows, a Cuban machete, and a Sulu kriss. Below the trophy are the words For Service. The whole is surrounded by a circle composed of the words United States Army in the upper half and thirteen stars in the lower half. The medal is suspended by a ring from a silk moire ribbon 138inches in length and 138 inches in width composed of a red stripe (14 inch), black stripe (316 inch), red band (12inch), black stripe (316 inch), and red stripe (14 inch). The Indian Campaign Medal was issued as a one-time decoration only and there were no devices or service stars authorized for those who had participated in multiple actions. The only attachment authorized to the medal was the silver citation star, awarded for meritorious or heroic conduct. The silver citation star was the predecessor of the Silver Star and was awarded to eleven soldiers between 1865 and 1891. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do for you!

#35 POLAND POLISH INDEPENDENCE CROSS WITH SWORDS, very rare, 2nd highest military decoration for valor before WWII just after the VM, only 1817 were ever awarded. They were not numbered or named like the Virtuti Militari. It is interesting to know that this decoration has a unique place in the Polish honors system. It is hard to explain the reason for its establishment. It was decided by Polish military experts that an honor level was missing between the VM and the Cross of Valor and those two decorations did not fully honor those persons who were not recognized for their valor and service in combat and/or behind the lines in support of the military campaigns especially in the summer of 1920. The decision was made in 1930 to correct this injustice by establishing the Independence Cross with SWORDS, without and a medal. Out of the 8,500 VM recipients and 60,000 Crosses of Valor for WWI, a problem developed whom to select for this additional honor? A full time Committee was established to review applications and nominations. Out of a millions of veterans from 1863 to 1921, a limited number were selected. 1817 crosses with Swords were awarded. Those awarded the cross with swords were recognized for their valor in lieu of a 4th class VM or a 5th Cross of Valor. Their contribution was beyond the traditional military honors. Anyone who was awarded this decoration with swords was a national hero and a legend. COLLECTOR SHOULD NOTE THAT THE SWORDS ARE ORIGINAL AS WELL AS THE CROSS. Fake swords are being used on this decoration as well as on the Cross of Merit of WWII. THE PHOTO SHOW PILSUDSKI WEARING THE CROSS, 2ND FROM THE LEFT JUST BEFORE THE CROSS OF VALOR.
