Egypt & Israel War of Attrition – The Egypt Shadwan Decoration medal
The War of Attrition, as named by Egyptian President Jamal Abdel Nasser, is also known by the Israelis as the 1000 days war. This war started on July 1, 1967 and ended on August 7, 1970 by a cease fire. It involved fighting mainly between Israel and Egypt with the support to Egypt of Jordan, the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and their allies.
Shadwan© is a barren rocky island of around 48 kilometers southwest of the Egyptian city of Sharm el-Sheikh on the Sinai Peninsula and 32 kilometers northeast of El Gouna. It is the largest of a group of islands in the mouth of the Gulf of Suez in the northern Red Sea and measures 16 kilometers in length, and between 3 to 5 kilometers wide. It was formerly also called Shaker Island and features a lighthouse. The island is famous as a touristic site for underwater diving and fishing.
The decoration was instituted on January 22, 1970 and issued in one class in commemoration of the heroes of the Egyptian Commando and Thunderbolt Forces defending the Shadwan Island from the Israeli invasion. Awarded to all army men, officers and soldiers, who were on the island at that day and totaling to one hundred. It is a scarce award as only 100 medal were minted and not many awarded.
