Reply #8: Unfortunately my grandpa's stuff got moved about when we were renovating

so we have no clue where they are right now.

But he's got patches and a few medals here and there.

There was some joking in his squadron* about getting him a purple heart for the only 'injury' he got... when the guys were having 'chicken fights' (the kind involving people on each other's shoulders, not actual chickens) when they were off duty and he was the one on the other guy's shoulders... and he got dropped. :P One eyebrow is still slightly crooked because of that. He ended up with a cut across it, and it got stitched back together a little crooked. But obviously that wasn't exactly a war wound. :)




* Are they called squadrons in the army? Whatever the groups in the army are called.
