Victory Medal (United States)

Victory Medal (United States)

Confusingly, the United States Victory Medal could refer to the:
* World War I Victory Medal (United States)
* World War II Victory Medal (United States)

Note that after World War I, each of the allied nations issued similar Victory medals - see the WW I medal page for details.

(To confuse things further, the World War I medal was also referred to as the "Allied Victory medal".)
