Does anyone know how I should go about identifying the unit award worn by this soldier?

Thanks,

Actually, with a larger image of it it probably wouldn't be too hard from the pattern, but I'm not enough of a computer geek to be able to do that.  As I recall from your previous post he was in Korea with one of the Ranger Companies.  If you can post the dates and units he was assigned to(my memory sucks these days) it shouldn't be too hard to track down.

It is one of the two following awards.  If I had the actual photo I could tell you which with 100 percent accuracy:

Presidential Unit Citation (Army/Air Force)
For service in a unit cited in the name of the president for extraordinary heroism in action occurring on or after 7 December 1941.

Army Meritorious Unit Commendation (Army)
Awarded to a unit for at least six months of outstanding service during a period of combat on or after 1 January 1944
