The US National Defense Service Medal Full Size in Box is an official United States military decoration first established by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1953. This full-size medal is awarded to members of the United States Armed Forces who have served honorably during designated periods of national emergency or conflict, including the Korean War, Vietnam War, Gulf War, and the Global War on Terrorism. The medal features a bronze disc displaying an eagle with inverted wings, perched on a sword and palm branch, symbolizing defense and peace. The accompanying ribbon is primarily red, with yellow, white, and blue stripes representing the United States. This item comes in its original presentation box as issued. The National Defense Service Medal is a common decoration acknowledging broad participation in national defense, rather than for individual acts of valor. It remains a significant item in United States military history and is frequently awarded to service members during qualifying periods.
