"Looks great. I have the original ribbon, but I lost the medal I was issued in Berlin in 1963."
"My original order came in quickly but one of the ribbon racks was wrong. Once I reached out someone responded the next day, fixed the rack and even overnighted it for me because it was for a veteran to be buried in. I could not have asked for a better outcome, thank you very much!"
