Thanks
Dave

Were these lapel pins or something attached to a watch chain ?

Miniature awards for civilian attire. Some were worn on a Buttonaire, button hole devise with ribbons. Some with ribbons and mini medals
some like I show just medals on a chain with a button hole attachment or two stickpins or hooks.
