Til! On February 28,1929 the Seventieth Congress of the United States of America passed an act , Chapter ~81 of the Statues at Large, which crea- ted the Walter Reed Congressional Medal some 28 years after the services were rendered. The medal the act authorized is a congressional medal , which is not to be confused with the Medal of Honor given by the Armed Forces for valor in combat. This congressional medal was awarded to 22 recipients in the early 1930’s~ it was not a continuing award. In July ,1956 President Eisenhow- er signed into law an act of Congress whereby this medal was awarded to Gustaf E. Lambert, who with Dr. Roger Post A~nes had been left out of the 1929 Act. Dr. Ames, however, was not added to the list of recipients. See " The Conquest of Yellow Fever ", The Medal Collector, January 1957, page 7. The services for which this medal was given was the series of tests carried out under the direction of Major Walter Reed, M.D.~ U.S. Army Medical Corps into the cause(s) of, transmission of, and prevention of yellow fever. These experiments were undertaken after the Spanish-Ameri- can War in Cuba in 1900 and 1901o The Walter Reed commission determined by its test that yellow fever was not transmitted by contact with those pers’~ns and their clothlng, etc. who had contracted the disease, but was spread by a type of mosquito. As a result of these findings the United States was able to construct the Panama Canal without the prohibitive cost of workmen’s’llves from yellow fever, a factor which had resulted in the failure of earlier attempts to build such a canal, by destroying the mosquitoes that bore the disease. Thus, the work of Major Reed and his associates was not only of long range benefit and importance to man- kind in ending one of the scourages, but also was of immediate benefit to the United States in establishing itself as a major world power, it should be noted that Major Reed did not live to see m~uuy of the fruits of his work as he died of appendicitis on November 22,1902 in Washing- ton, D.C. The men listed in the 1929 and 1956 acts of Congress directed or took ~art in the e~-periments. Most of the men were subjects or human guinea pigs who, among other things~, lived in the clothing and slept in the beds of victims who had died of yellow fever, were put near towels stained with the blood of such victims, and were bitten by the mosqui- toes known or suspected of carrying the disease. It can be seen that these men had a great deal of fortitude and courage in facing a disease that Was often fatal and of unknown cause. The medal provided for by Congress is a 63 mm diameter circular ta- ble medal of gold. This writer recently came across what might be des- cribed as a wearin~ minature of this Congressional medal, paralleling con’t Page 33 RIBBON RIBBON BANK REGULATIONS When writing for ribbons please mention 0MSA membership number, as only members in good standing are eligible to purchase from the Ribbon Bank.

  • Medals of the Spanish and Philippine War Era
    Medals of the Spanish and Philippine War Era By Gary Robbins Surnames included: Lawton, Robbins You’ve finally gone to visit your cousin after her parents died. She leads you up the steep stairs to the attic to show you some cool stuff and you spot a dusty old trunk that once belonged to Great Uncle Frank. You think “Ah ha!”. You dash across the creaking floor, open the clasp and slowly squeak it open. Inside, you spot a folded uniform on the left and some strange medals protruding from a yellowed envelope on the right. You’ve never seen these before so you hold them up to the light and think, “What’s this all about?” In the late 19th and early 20th century, a combination of US patriotism, civic pride, social need and increasing leisure time created an environment ripe for fraternal organizations. The Western frontier closed and Americans settled into more stable lives. Acts of valor, previously felt to be an ordinary part of life, became extraordinary, rare and elevated to heights above more mundane accomplishments of modern civilization. Many organizations and societies came into existence and fulfilled the needs of many Americans to associate with others of similar interests and experiences. Some were simply social such as Elks, or civic such as Rotary, while others centered around patriotism and military service such as the DAR and VFW. Some of these organizations arose out of the Civil War but many more arose out of the Spanish War era (1898-1902). Many of these organizations were self-aggrandizing and bestowed esoteric titles, roles, honors, prizes and awards.

  • U.8. MARINE CORPS RECIPIENTS of the DEWEY MEDAL Edward S
    U.8. MARINE CORPS RECIPIENTS OF THE DEWEY MEDAL Edward S. Haynes Through the efforts of Chuck Bell and Arthur Weiss, medal collectors have been provided with a valuable reference tool in their publication OFFICERS AND MEN AT THE BATTLE OF MANILA BAY. This pamphlet gives a list of the recipients of the Dewey Medal, awarded in June 1898 for participation in the battle of 1 May 1898. It was not, however, until the early years of the twentieth century that badges and medals were awarded by the United States Government in recognition of these individuals’ services in the War with Spain and in other conflicts. Drawin~ from the somewhat fragmentary medal Rolls of the U.S. Marine Corps, it has been possible to reconstruct a number of these Dewey Medal groups and, hopefully, to take some faltering steps toward the reunion of broken groups. I want to express my deep gratitude to those ~o have aided me in filling gaps in the groups of several of these Marines. Many of my informants have requested anonymity and, in return for their continued assistance, I respect their wishes. To those who have aided me -- and you know who you are -- my deepest thanks. I could only hope that other members of OMSA and other medal collectors might be willing to help in the very difficult process of reuniting ~roups of medals which have been separated by chance, i~norance, or greed.
