Identifying Buttons (NOA)

[Kathymarie3392]

Trying to identify all of these buttons! There are so many variations it gets a little confusing to my untrained eye.

Not sure on the NOA buttons. I will have to look in one of my outdated, poorly written button books on it but the others in the second photo are a Boy Scout button, the 2 Eagles will need to know back mark to date. The anchors are US Navy buttons and the other is hard to see. The ones in the other photos are the Great Seal button which was came into being in 1902.

Sorry wrong eagle. Is this the image you were referring to as the great seal? There are some that are gold and some that look brass with the same image. Here is the other eagle.

Brass and Gold? It looks like the images are slightly different.

Let me start with the ribbons that are unit citation medals. All these unit citations and medals are worn above the right pocck as opposed to individual medals worn above the left pocket.
U.S. Army Presidential Unit Citation, yours has an oak leaf and is for wining the medal twice.

U.S Army Meritorious Unit Commendation.

Republic of Korea, Korean Presidential Unit Citation (probably for Korean War). The U.S. Army allows this foreign medal to be worn on U.S. Army uniforms.

I'd love a few original buttons , where buttons issued with state seals ?

 

[major bill]

Republic of Vietnam Civil Actions Unit Citation (Vietnam War). The U. S. Army allows the medal to be worn on U.S. Army uniforms. Yours is missing the scroll for some reason, perhaps it fell off.

Yes every state had a state seal button during the CW.
