as Item number: 350187435984, with the following text:This 2 1/2" long silver plated oval medallion is a replica of the first ever military decoration given in the United States. It was awarded to John Paulding, Isaac Van Wert, and David Williams for their role in capturing Major John André at a site now called Patriots Park in Tarrytown, NY. The capture of Major Andre resulted in the discovery of Benedict Arnold's plans to surrender West Point to the British, which were subsequently foiled. André was hanged as a spy.
