[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 1580052, member: 9374"] That's a good idea. I do have a good copy of the award letter which details the act resulting in his Bronze Star. But I do like the idea of a bronze plaque with the story on it. Right now, everything is in a scrapbook my wife made for me at Christmas a few years ago with pictures my dad took in 'Nam, his awards and other patriotic stuff... I was literally vapor-locked and couldn't breathe when I opened the package. She did it all behind my back with my grandmother's help and it was probably the best Christmas present I've ever received. I never knew anything about the DD214, but now that I've seen this here, it gets me started. I'll be looking into it this week. I always assumed he'd have to be declared legally dead in order for me to petition for re-issuance of his official medals. Maybe not. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
