    I found these there medals in a box from my Grandfather which contained his WWII medals as well as some WWI medals from my Great Grandfather. Any ideas on what they are?

    Only one seems to be Japnese, the others ar eFrench in my opinion: the grenade insignia on the right makes me think of a French colonial infantry tab. The anchor looks familiar too, I am thinking of a Colonial French Marines insignia, possibly from and Indochina Regiment. The flower puzzles me though , I have to check this closer
