Bringing protection in a patriotic fashion, the St. Christopher army medal is a unique and special gift to give those serving our country in the military. The strong men and women in the United States are doing a great service for our country, and this medal is a great way to show them that you appreciate what they are doing and that you care for them. The quarter sized sterling silver St. Christopher medal shows the emblem of the United States Army on one side and St. Christopher on the other, with the words 'St. Christopher Protect Me' engraved along the perimeter. The 24 inch endless chain that the army medal comes on is durable stainless steel and, like all of the St. Christopher military medals you can buy at St. Patrick's Guild, comes handsomely packaged in velvet texture jewelry box. Remember that St. Christopher is the patron of safe travels- isn't that your most fervent wish for your loved one in the army?
