Need help with a US soldier's tag
Hello all,
A friend of mine recently found this tag in France while metal detecting.
He thinks he was able to find back the soldier's identity :
NARA - AAD - Display Full Records - Electronic Army Serial Number Merged File, ca. 1938 - 1946 (Enlistment Records)
He then also found out that this gentleman is unfortunately deceased :
World War II Honoree
Everything seems to coincide.
Still, my friend would really love to return the tag to any remaining family member. He would love to get maybe a picture of this man to put it together with the tag and return it. When he wrote to me about this tag, you could tell he was moved by this discovery. But he is in France and he thought being here in the US, I might be able to help him. Hence this post.
Any help is welcome !!
