When my brother passed away, I knew he'd been awarded three Bronze Stars, so I asked some authority for copies of his citations. The reponse wasn't the citations; the government sent me an entire collection of his medals.

Your congressman might help you get the collection.

Thank you so much...That would be wonderful to replace all of his Medals. He knocked out a Machine Gun nest while his company was pinned down was the reason for the Silver Star in Korea.

He was also a POW for 3 years in Germany but not even sure what all he got from that. I was able to find some information on the Camp where he was kept as a prisoner but it does not tell much more that his location, name, rank, dates and such.
