Have an item you'd like to return to family? Are you looking for an item that belonged to a particular family service member? Post here!

 

USMF Members: This section is dedicated to highlighting the items that have been returned to recipients/ owners or their families by our membership or items that forum members would like to attempt to return to the original recipient/owner or families or for family members to post ISO queries when searching for missing family items. We will also redirect inquiries from families who join here because of posted items. This section will allow any member to post or list named medals, uniforms, helmets, etc. they wish to be reconnected to the families that could be searching. As always, you as a member have no requirement to respond to contacts about items you post on the forum. If it happens and you are not interested in getting involved, contact a Mod or Admin and they will intercede in your behalf.

Always proceed with caution and feel comfortable in your contact with parties when returning items. This section is completely VOLUNTARY
