The Honorable Service Lapel Button sometimes called the Honorable Service Lapel Pin was awarded to United States military service members who were discharged under honorable conditions during World War II.[1] The award was sometimes slangily called the Ruptured duck.[2] Sculptor Anthony de Francisci designed the award.
The Department of Defense awarded the button between September 1939 and December 1946 and it was made of gilt brass, except during metal shortages during which it was made of gilt plastic. Service members who received the plastic version were later allowed to trade it in for the brass version.
This was an Honorable Discharge Pin, given to soldiers honorably discharged. They called it a "ruptured duck" because it depicted a somewhat ungainly, potbellied eagle taking flight. There had been a common expression in WWII for anything that took off rapidly - it took off like "a ruptured duck".
For vaginal discharge, you can use over-the-counter antifungal or antibiotic creams, suppositories, or oral medications as directed by your healthcare provider. It's essential to consult a healthcare provider for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, as discharge can be caused by various factors. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, wearing breathable cotton underwear, and avoiding douching can help manage discharge.
You would have to specify where on the discharge papers (I'm assuming you're referring to a DD-214) it's found at.

You could try two ways. One is to have the executor/administrator contact the army to request a copy of the discharge papers. The army will have certain procedures and paperwork, with which you will have to comply. The second is to see if your particular state records them. In New Jersey, veterans' discharge papers are recorded just the way deeds are recorded in order to ensure that they could be retrieved in the event the veteran lost the originals. Contact the state or county recording office to inquire about that.
No. They would receive whatever discharge papers the Australian military gave them upon their discharge from service.
You need to contact the National Personnel Records Centre. See related link.

No, there is no specific award or medal given solely for an honorable discharge from the US Army. However, service members who are honorably discharged may receive various campaign medals, service awards, or decorations depending on their service and accomplishments during their time in the military. These awards are typically given for specific achievements or periods of service.
