<p>[QUOTE=&quot;agaricus65, post: 36618, member: 1543&quot;]I have a wonderful bronze medal which commemorates several French battles in which the 371st Infantry fought from Sept. 28 - Oct. 1, 1918.&nbsp; One side has a stalking lion, a 371st shield, and the battle info.&nbsp; The other side has soldiers in battle.&nbsp; The sculptor was Jules-Prosper Legastelois.&nbsp; I have found out that the 371st was an African-American unit which fought with great valor with the French troops and was highly decorated.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Can anyone tell me more about the nature of this medal, such as why it was produced, how many were produced, who it would have been given to, and what is the present value?&nbsp; Any info would be appreciated.&nbsp; Thanks.&nbsp; I can send images if anyone is interested.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Fred Kelso[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
