tarbridge Posted January 23, 2017 Share #7 Posted January 23, 2017 How about a little background on the Veteran Please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pathfinder505 Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share #8 Posted January 23, 2017 I am trying to research the veteran. I found a picture of his grave. The family didnt know his unit only that he served in Europe. He passed away back in 1976. He was in the 13th Corps. Now if I can figure out what division. I plan to visit the local courthouse and try to get a copy of his DD214. I am hoping I can find an obituary at the library. His ribbon bars, patches, and collar brass were mixed in with the souvenirs. Will be posting more as I find information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarbridge Posted January 23, 2017 Share #9 Posted January 23, 2017 Does he have a Military tombstone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pathfinder505 Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share #10 Posted January 23, 2017 Does he have a Military tombstone? No, its just a tombstone for him and his wife. She has an obit posted on find a grave but he does not. I found she was a relative from the obit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
