Some of the U.S. Marine Corps' finiest are being recognized with a U.S. Mint Medal

U.S. Marine Corps - Montford Point Marines - will be receiving the National Congressional Medal today from the U.S. Senate.

http://www.jdnews.com/articles/montford-105481-gold-point.html


The U.S. Mint will be selling Bronze replicas of the Montford Point Medal. When the Montford Point Marines Museum initially started, back around 2004, I had the privilage of being their "acting Curator," for two years. I met and interviewed many of these Marines.

I do not know the pricing for these Bronze Medals but, I am certain I will be picking me up a few.

Congratulations to Montford Point Marines and best wishes to all military Veterans.

Semper Fi !
