Nice to see you got the file! in 2020 you can write for his file and get the whole thing rather than having to do a FOIA request. Since he separated in 1957, 63+ years = 2020.

Great medal & great research to a sailor with a remarkable career! Any idea of the whereabouts of any other of his memorabilia? Bobgee

Unfortunately no. I purchased his BS on eBay several years ago. The seller didnt mention the box having the name on the bottom so Im guessing they didnt know it was Carlsons. I hate to say it but unless someone specifically has all of his other awards identified somewhere, its a lost group.

 

Thanks to everyone who looked and who commented! Its my pleasure to share.
