A full-size medal, ribbon will be provided along with the blank U.S. Navy/USMC Bronze Star Medal certificate. I ask you: have you EVER seen one for sale on eBay or anywhere else. In my 25 years selling, I have not. As you might guess, this is exceeding rare. If you think my price is too high, write and make an offer. I will not use the eBay "make an offer" link, as is just a vehicle for abuse. In this listing is the original, embossed Bronze Star Medal certificate for the US Navy or USMC, as shown in the photo. Awarded for gallantry in action against an enemy of the United States not justifying a higher award. This is the fourth-highest award for bravery , heroism or meritorious service. Awarded to a member of the military who, while serving in or with the military of the United States after December 6, 1941, distinguished him or herself by heroic or meritorious achievement or service, not involving participation in aerial flight, while engaged in an action against an enemy of the United States; while engaged in military operations involving conflict with an opposing foreign force; or while serving with friendly foreign forces engaged in an armed conflict against an opposing armed force in which the United States is not a belligerent party. Awards may be made for acts of heroism, performed under circumstances described above, which are of lesser degree than required for the award of the Silver Star. Awards may also be made to recognize single acts of merit or meritorious service. The required achievement or service while of lesser degree than that required for the award of the Legion of Merit must nevertheless have been meritorious and accomplished with distinction. To be eligible for the Bronze Star Medal, a military member must be getting hostile fire/imminent danger pay, during the event for which the medal is to be awarded. The Bronze Star Medal is typically referred to by its full name (including the word "Medal") to differentiate the decoration from bronze service stars which are worn on campaign medals and service awards. This is an original, embossed certificate with the Presentation Set ! Once I sell this one, that's it. To fully comply with the law, I must sell this blank. I am able (in some circumstances) to fill in your information. Write me and we can discuss. If you provide me with evidence you earned this, I feel comfortable filling it in for you. Please note that it is 100 percent legal to sell or buy such documents, provided it is to be used: As a momento, or in a collection or exhibit; for decorative purposes; for a dramatic presentation such as theatre, film or television; or For any other recreational purpose. For your personal use. The buyer assumes all liability for the misuse or unlawful use of these items. I have no responsibility for this whatsoever. If you are even remotely thinking of buying you BETTER MOVE FAST!!!! A couple of idiots in Congress are going to re-instate the Stolen Valor Act by slipping it into the upcoming budget allocation for the Department of Defense! Probably by late August it will again be illegal to buy and sell these. Then, my fellow veterans, we are s* out of luck, with no way to replace our damaged, lost or unissued authorized medal certificates. These freaking jerk politicians pick on this because it's easy. Slimeballs have no consideration for the military veteran who is 100 percent unable to replace a lost certificate. Don't they realize the government will NOT replace these? So what if a faker slips by; that's his problem to deal with, not yours. We've got the supreme faker of all time as our POTUS. He can't explain how he got a Fulbright Scholarship, that fake SSAN, with what passport he traveled to Pakistan, and on and on. Yet, many clowns believe in him. So, I'm not too worried about a fake Navy SEAL running around the local pool hall spouting off at the mouth. I have certificates (and medals) for the US Army Silver Star (and USN/USMC), Purple Heart , NAVY CROSS, DFC, DSC, DSM, and many, many ... read more
