Thank God. For a moment I thought they were going to credit Facebook.
A minor miracle.
Powerful stuff involving two fine men.
Here is another article, with a little more detail.

Great story!
Today I read an article about a local Tennessee man who bought a Bronze Star in a pawn shop. Had been awarded to a soldier killed in the Korean War. The local man put time and effort into tracking down the brother of the veteran, and presented the medal to him at a graveside ceremony.
I wanted to post the article. Mod, I knew there might be a problem, cause the source is WBIR-TV, which is a Gannett affiliate, and I thought it might be blocked. I have an e-mail from the content co-ordinator at WBIR-TV, giving me permission to post a link to the story, but I don’t know how to proceed without getting the automatic block. If it can’t be done, that’s OK, but if it can, could you guide me on proper procedure?
