Fred Borgmann Posted August 18, 2008 Share #12 Posted August 18, 2008 Last one.An article about his move to California and service in Montenegro. The item you call a "coin" is a private puchase souvenir medal often carried as a pocket piece. I hope that you will be able to get his WWI Victory medal and discharge or a copy of it.
