Uniform Display Case
A Uniform Display Case is similar to a shadow box but with a uniform mounted inside for displaying uniform awards and decorations in a manner as close as possible to how they would appear on an actual uniform.
They are typically presented to people that have served in uniform upon retirement. These display cases will usually contain the various medals and awards a person has earned while serving in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines as well as Police and Fire Departments.
A Uniform Display Case is a platform for displaying Medals, Awards, Rank, Badges and other Uniform Decorations on a uniform in a frame that enables the heroic individuals that have dedicated their lives protecting our country and our communities while serving in uniform to take pride in their accomplishments.
What makes a Uniform Display Case different from a shadow box is that the “uniform” is mounted in a manner so that the sleeves, epaulettes and upper ¾ of the uniform are visible and the Awards and Decorations can be displayed similar to they would appear on an actual uniform.
The Uniform Display Case allows service members to proudly display their uniform with all their medals and awards in their home or office rather than letting them gather dust in a closet or drawer.
