EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the prestigious U. S. Army Medal of Honor with its distinctive neck band, dating back to the tumultuous years between 1941 and 1945. Crafted by an unknown creator, this iconic medal, also known as the Congressional Medal of Honor, symbolizes unparalleled bravery and valor in the American armed forces. The image captures every intricate detail of this revered accessory from the World War II era. The medal's star-shaped design is adorned with a majestic eagle motif, representing strength and freedom. Its vibrant colors bring to life a piece of American history that resonates even today. Preserved within the archives of the Congressional Library and Library of Congress, this photograph serves as a testament to America's unwavering commitment to honor those who have selflessly served their country. It stands as a reminder of sacrifice made during one of humanity's darkest chapters. Through its still image format, we are transported back in time to witness not only an emblematic piece but also gain insight into fashion choices prevalent during that decade. This print offers us a glimpse into how clothing played an integral role in shaping national identity during times of war. As we admire this remarkable artifact captured by the Farm Security Administration (FSA) under the Office of War Information (OWI), let us pay tribute to all those who wore this distinguished medal proudly on their chests while defending our nation's values on battlefields across Europe and Asia.
