Product Description

This 4-page prestige folio, Medal of Honor: Korean War, honors those 145 recipients.The first side of the prestige folio high­lights historical photographs of the last living recipients of the Medal of Honor from the Korean War. The 13 photo­graphs surround two Forever stamps. One stamp features a photograph of the Navy version of the Medal of Honor; the other stamp features a photograph of the Army version of the Medal of Honor. The second page includes a short piece of text and a key to the names of the recipients pic­tured in the cover photos. The names of all 145 recipients of the Medal of Honor from the Korean War are listed on page three. The remaining 18 stamps are found on the back page along with a quote describing why the Medal of Honor is awarded, “For conspicuous gallantry and intrepid­ity at the risk of life, above and beyond the call of duty.” Art director Antonio Alcalá designed the prestige folio and the stamps, working with photographs of the medals by Rich­ard Frasier. (Forever stamps are always equal in value to the current first-class mail one-ounce rate.)
