Book Description
Excerpt from Orders, Decorations and Insignia, Military and Civil: With the History and Romance of Their Origin, and a Full Description of Each HE conferring of decorations on citizens of the United T States has assumed a new importance during the World War due to the character of the service rendered and the initiation of new classes of decorations by an Act of Congress. In contradistinction to many foreign decorations which are awarded for. Personal reasons, the United States decorations are only awarded for specific services rendered and are, in each case, only awarded after a careful scrutiny by a board of officers of the service upon which the award is based. Every little bit of ribbon, then, worn by an officer of the Army or Navy or by a civilian who participated in the military programme during the World War, represents distinguished service of some form and a very high standard is preserved in the conferring of these decorations.

Book Description
"American literature is singularly deficient in works bearing on medals and decorations even of the United States, and for information on foreign decorations and orders, the American must consult books published abroad. This work has been prepared to supply that deficiency, but is limited to the decorations of the United States and of our Allies in the World War." This book is part of the World War One Centenary series; creating, collating and reprinting new and old works of poetry, fiction, autobiography and analysis. The series forms a commemorative tribute to mark the passing of one of the world's bloodiest wars, offering new perspectives on this tragic yet fascinating period of human history. Each publication also includes brand new introductory essays and a timeline to help the reader place the work in its historical context.
