    These two pins are much better quality than the typical son in service pins.

    The blue stars represent two members of the family serving in the military.

    The gold star represents a family member who died during service.

    Both have pin back construction.

      I'd never even heard of these. I might just have one made for a friend who's son is overseas right now.
      Thanks Scott!!!

      Thanks Esther-- the son in service banners and similar items have made a comeback in recent years.
