People should take notice; the purchasing of U.S. Medals, both full size and miniature, and color imitations of such awards is allowed under Federal Law as COLLECABLES ONLY! Anyone wearing any medal or decoration they PERSONALLY are not entitled to under Federal law may be imprisoned or fined. Such action is a felony under Federal and several State statutes. In Oklahoma for instance it is a felony punishable for up to 2 Years confinement and up to a $5,000 fine.
So buy to collect, never buy with the intent to wear to commit a fraud of impersonation.
