How about some help with a WW2 Medal

I was making a house call, something that is fast becoming a lost tradition in the selling business, when I noticed a few very interesting pictures on the wall. The pictures were of my customers late husband standing in front of a B19. She explained he was the pilot and at the time was flying the "hump" and she further explained what that meant. She went on to say he had also flown in Europe and had a pistol in the house as a souvenir of those missions. To make a long story short, I bought the Luger and she asked me to try to ID a medal. Here are pictures of both. Any help in sheading any light on the medal will be appreciated. BTW, the Luger is BYF 41 date with a matching mag.
Thanks,
Mike
