Katamon Medal, token of the conquest of Katamon, Jerusalem, May 1, 1948
Katamon was an upper class Arab Christian neighborhood. It became the focus of fighting in the de- fense of Jerusalem at the end of April 1948. Much life was lost on both sides before Israelis captured the San Simon monastery. Most Arab families fled. This medalet was awarded to defenders for a short while, then withdrawn. It is the only Israeli wartime battle medal.
Obverse legend: "If I Forget Thee Oh Jerusalem May my Right Hand Forget its Skill".
Reverse legend: "For the conquest of KATAMON Jerusalem 22 Nisan 5708 1 May 1948".
Diameter 28mm. please see photos for self-grading.
Item from the collections of Jacob Yablok - VirtualJewishmuseum.com.
