USS George E. Davis DE-357 Battle Ribbons

     Battle ribbons and medals are awarded to naval vessels and crew as a testament of service. Thanks to RD2 Stanley Cohen, we have the collected record and description of the medals of the George E. Davis DE-357. Bars are normally worn on dress uniforms while the medals are pinned on usually on fancy dress occasions. If you will look closely, you'll see the same colors in the bars as in the medallions. The bars are a sort of "shorthand" representing the medals. The very top bar, for example represents the medal in the center of the picture.
