I'm making a box for a relative who did time in Marines. He was a rifleman and in Vietnam. Is there a medal for a rifleman? Is it like or the same as the Infantry man Army Badge? Or the Army Combat Inf Badge? Don't know anything about Leathernecks ....thanks

Here's one that I've almost finished for a cousin of mine that will be getting it for his birthday. Still want to add some red felt inside the box. Sorry, but I didn't know how to "blur" out the name so I just colored over it with MS Paint.

Here's another Keepsake box that I made for a Fallen Warrior from our home town. Presented it to his widow and 2 sons a few weeks ago.
