USN US Navy Enlisted Aviator Grouping Nicaragua WWII Korean War Veteran Uniform

This group is attributed to James Winsor Stokes, Included in the group is his uniform, that is in excellent shape, with his name inside the jacket, and trousers, featuring a nice custom ribbon rack, a beautiful bullion Aviation Electrician Chief Petty Officer Rate, and 5 Gold service stripes (for a total of 20 years of service i believe). He enlisted in 1928 and retired in 1961. From his ribbon rack, you can see he spent time in Nicaragua, Both the European and Pacific Theatres in World War Two, as well as the Korean War. Also included is his Log Book/Photo Album, Consisting of about 75 photos from early in his career, Several pictures of him on the USS Oklahoma, and of him in Nicaragua. Also included are his dog tags (2 sets), A custom ribbon rack from his green Aviation uniform, and another set of clutchback ribbons.

His Aviation wings are Sterling with 10K gold filled, and several assorted pieces of insignia. The ensign bars are sterling.

There is a Navy Rifle Expert medal included, it was missing the ribbon, i replaced the ribbon so it would display well, i think i did a fairly good job, and pleased with the results. There is a small piece of period ribbon included, but it was far to small to use. There are a few small cards/documents that were included, that confirm all of his awards, except the rifle expert medal.... Unfortunately, his Good conduct, Nicaragua, and China Service medals are missing from the group.

However, several of his medals were included, and came with their original boxes, American Defense with Fleet Bar, EAME Campaign, American Campaign, Asiatic Pacific Campaign and WWII Victory Medal. Also included is a Desk Placard, With his name and date on it. Among the items in his grouping is a Liberty Pass, with his picture, from the USS Yorktown.
