That must have been a pretty miserable (in all directions) grandson. Even 10 generations later, the medal should in the hands of the family.

Once history is gone, it's gone forever.

Your right. Look at what is going around today, there are so many that just do not care, and that includes many politicians I am sad to say.

Disgusting. What a bunch of scumbags.

Last I checked, such sales are illegal under federal law, and punishable by fines of up to $100,000 and a year in jail.
