These bronze medals are a great addition to any collection. Honor your military veteran or a family member today with these keepsakes. Though the Marauders were operational for only a few months, the legacy of their bravery is honored by the Army through the modern-day 75th Ranger Regiment, which traces its lineage directly to the 5307th Composite Unit. For their bravery and accomplishments, the Marauders were awarded the “Distinguished Unit Citation,” later re-designated as the “Presidential Unit Citation,” and a Bronze Star.
