These exciting new issues honor both the service of the American Soldierand their legendary partnership with one of the most remarkable infantry weapons of the last hundred years. Craftsmen decorated each working Thompson in sparkling 24-karat gold .
On the left side of a Tribute to America’s Soldiers Thompson, you’ll find two scenes that show the soldier and the Thompson in action. The first scene shows infantrymen landing on the beach during the D-Day invasion. Dodging a hail of bullets and artillery shells, soldiers dragged the Thompson through seawater and sand. Once they reached enemy positions, the last thing they needed was a misfire. The trusty Thompson rarely let them down. Also featured is an outline of the U.S.A. with the words, “Freedom Forever,” and a banner reading “Country Before Self,” both honoring the selfless contributions of America’s Soldiers. At the center, a soldier stands firing his Thompson.
The right side of a Tribute to America’s Soldiers Thompson features an illustration of a soldier taking aim with his Thompson and banners that read, “Saluting America’s Soldiers” and “Defending Freedom”. The rest of the action on the right side of the receiver depicts scenes during WWII and the Korean and Vietnam Wars. In the North African campaign in WWII, soldiers wielded the Thompson alongside battle tanks during desert warfare. On the front lines of Korea, the soldiers distinguished themselves with the Thompson. Though the struggles and harsh conditions in Korea would push every soldier to the limit, the fighting spirit of America’s Soldiers carried on. In Vietnam, with helicopters in the background, soldiers relied on their Thompsons, often in the rice paddies and jungles.
