Roosevelt. The decoration was intended to recognize those military service members who had performed military duty in the European Theater (to include North Africa and the Middle East) during the years of the Second World War. Colored bands representing Germany (on the ribbon's left side), Italy (on the ribbon's right side), and the United States (in the center of the ribbon) are visible in the ribbon. The brown and green areas of the ribbon represent the terrain of the area of conflict, which ranged from beaches and sand, to grass and woodlands, to mountains.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\r\n Originally known as the \"EAME Ribbon\", the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal is awarded for any service performed between December 7, 1941 and March 2, 1946 provided such service was performed in the geographical theater areas of Europe, North Africa, or the Middle East. For those service members who participated in multiple battle campaigns, service stars are authorized to the decoration with the arrowhead device awarded for any airborne or amphibious operations performed. The Fleet Marine Force combat operation insignia is also authorized for certain sailors.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\r\n The following campaigns are recognized by service stars to the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Egypt-Libya: June 11, 1942 - February 12, 1943\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Air Offensive, Europe: July 4, 1942 - June 5, 1944\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Algeria-French Morocco: November 8 - 11, 1942\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Tunisia: November 12, 1942 - May 13, 1943\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Sicily: May 14, 1943 - August 17, 1943\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Naples-Foggia: August 18, 1943 - January 21, 1944\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Anzio: January 22, 1944 - May 24, 1944\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Rome-Arno: January 22, 1944 - September 9, 1944\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Normandy: June 6, 1944 - July 24, 1944\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Northern France: July 25, 1944 - September 14, 1944\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Southern France: August 15, 1944 - September 14, 1944\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Northern Apennines: September 10, 1944 - April 4, 1945\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Rhineland: September 15, 1944 - March 21, 1945\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Ardennes-Alsace: December 16, 1944 - January 25, 1945\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Central Europe: March 22, 1945 - May 11, 1945\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Po Valley: April 5, 1945 - May 8, 1945\u003cbr\u003e\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\r\n For those service members who did not participate in a designated battle campaign, the following \"blanket campaigns\" are authorized to the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal, denoted by service stars\u003cbr\u003e\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Antisubmarine: December 7, 1941 - September 2, 1945\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Ground Combat: December 7, 1941 - September 2, 1945\u003cbr\u003e\r\n     Air Combat: December 7, 1941 - September 2, 1945\u003cbr\u003e\r\n ","brand":"Uniform Accessories Unlimited, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Ribbon","offer_id":54144886997358,"sku":"R-1095   #100","price":7.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Miniature Medal","offer_id":54144887030126,"sku":"ML-M1095   #100","price":23.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large Medal","offer_id":54144887062894,"sku":"ML-F1095   #100","price":30.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Box Set","offer_id":54144887095662,"sku":"ML-BS1095   #100","price":36.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/2558\/3470\/files\/European-African-Middle-Eastern-Campaign-Service-Ribbon.gif?v=1782314033","url":"https:\/\/www.uniformitems.com\/products\/european-african-middle-eastern-campaign-award-1287","provider":"Uniform Accessories Unlimited, Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
