I applied for my Dads WW-2 service records awhile back and the Dept. of the Navy sent me the medals he was entitled to, they were in my mailbox when I got home today.

Gather up the rest of his insignia and put together a frame in his honor. This is the frame I put together for my uncle. He was a WW2 vet and an Anzio POW. Gary
