The China Service Medal was instituted by the Navy Department on July 1, 1942, and awarded to U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard personnel which recognized their service in and around China. The round shaped obverse features a three sailed Chinese junk surrounded by “China Service”. The reverse shows a bald eagle clutching a laurel leaf and berry branch while perched on a horizontally placed anchor, underneath an arched “United States Marine Corps” and flanked by “For” (left) “Service” (right). To the top is a rectangular ball loop and ring which holds yellow and red ribbon. The reverse has a bar with a pin, hinge and catch assembly. It measures 1 5/8 in diameter. I believe this is Navy issue.
