Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) Bronze Medal – 1.5 Inch
Celebrate the groundbreaking service of the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) with this 1.5-inch bronze replica medal, a duplicate of the Congressional Gold Medal awarded in recognition of their pioneering military service during World War II. Authorized by Public Law 111-40, this medal honors the WASP for forging revolutionary reform in the U.S. Armed Forces.
Obverse (Heads): Features a WASP portrait with three pilots in period uniforms walking toward their aircraft at Avenger Field, and an AT-6 aircraft breaking through the inner rim. Inscriptions: “WOMEN AIRFORCE SERVICE PILOTS” and “1942–1944.”
Reverse (Tails): Depicts the three aircraft flown by WASP during training—the AT-6, B-26 (Martin Marauder), and P-51, with WASP wings at the base. Inscriptions: “THE FIRST WOMEN IN HISTORY TO FLY AMERICAN MILITARY AIRCRAFT,” “ACT OF CONGRESS,” and “2009.”
This medal is a perfect tribute to the courage, skill, and dedication of the WASP, making it an essential addition to any military or World War II history collection.
