rsmartin75 Posted May 2, 2017 Share #1 Posted May 2, 2017 Hey Everyone, I have been searching for the Purple Heart of my great uncle, Boyd Bunion Stanford. He was killed at Iwo Jima, and was a member of the Co. C 2nd Armored Amphibious Battalion. He was killed a couple of months after my Dad was born, so they never met. My Grandmother, Boyd's sister, passed away last year, and I thought it would be amazing to give my Dad his uncle's Purple Heart. Boyd's nickname was Bun, and he is buried in the same cemetery as my grandmother. I will buy it from whoever has the medal or medals. It would really mean a lot to be able to give this to my Dad. It would mean a lot to him. I know Boyd Stanford's Purple Heart has been sold on this website before, but the person who bought it said he re-sold it, and doesn't know who he re-sold it to. If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it. My Dad's uncle: Stanford, Boyd B, PFC, KIA, V Amphibious Corps, USMC Thanks again, Scott Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
