WWII Army Air Corp Distinguished Flying Cross Service Medal GS00936

The planchet is made from copper and mixed materials and has a glossy finish. It has a four-bladed propeller in the reentrant angles of the cross, with rays between the arms of the cross. The reverse side of the medal is blank, leaving space for the recipient's rank and name.

The ribbon is primarily blue, with a narrow band of red, bordered by white stripes. The edges of the ribbon are outlined in white and blue bands with functional pin assembly (slant brooch). Army Corps reservist Captain Charles A. Lindbergh was the first to receive the Distinguished Flying Cross on 11 June 1927 for his May 1927 solo flight across the Atlantic in the Spirit of St. Measurements: 1 5/8" x 1 3/4" and 3 3/4 tall.
