Here's a Unique One my Dad recieved from the Alabama National Guard. The Phenix City Campaign Medal. It was issued to Alabama National Guard troops that were sent to Phenix City, Alabama on 18 June 1954 to combat the corruption and lawlessness in the city. This mobilization came when recently elected Attorney General Patterson was gunned down on the street in Phenix City. Troops remained in Phenix City until 17 January 1955. Considered the most sinful city in the United States at the time it is now basically a suburb and bedroom community to Fort Benning and Columbus, Georgia
