Marc Garlasco Posted June 26, 2017 Share #1 Posted June 26, 2017 Gents, trying to ascertain which Victory medal is correct for this ancestor. Just got the service record for my wife's great-uncle. We knew he was artillery in the AEF but that is all. So he was a Captain in the 112th FA (Montclair, NJ), 29th Infantry. When they deployed to the Meuse-Argonne the 112th remained in garrison in France as their artillery had not yet arrived. He eventually became an adjutant on the staff and so does not look like he saw combat. Am I correct he would have qualified for the Victory medal with France bar? Many thanks!

WittWorldWide.com Posted June 26, 2017 Share #2 Posted June 26, 2017 Looks like the 112th FA was listed as FRANCE Bar Only in the WW1 Campaign Credits listing. Regards, Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3mxd Posted June 26, 2017 Share #4 Posted June 26, 2017 My guess is this is a daily feeder report to the regiment's monthly Returns and here's my crack at translation of the Remarks: Transferred to Army Post Office #726 [126?, I assume this means a location rather than being transferred to a postal unit] per Special Order #300, paragraph 52 General Headquarters [dated?] 25 October 1918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
