Questions & Comments
This medal is the Air Force Good Conduct Medal. In the Air Force LTG stands for Lieutenant general. He may have got the letters mixed up. Also Stinger 1 could be a nickname.
If you Google his fathers name, you will find his obit. In the obit it says he served in both the Navy and the Air Force. I have seen nothing about any of these auctions that lead me to believe Chris is trying to deceive anyone. All the facts I have seen so far lead me to believe these are legit medals. as for the Rank Chris simply got the letter mixed up his father is LTJG Delbert L "Bert" Goben
FYI, the navy good conduct medal is solid burgundy on the ribbon. This is indeed a usaf good conduct medal. Not doubting your father's service but just wanted to add the info.
Thanks for sharing that about your dad. Very cool. I was usaf but my job allowed me to work with all branches (except coast guard) so I b got to learn a bunch about the different uniforms.
