when i am ready to send pictures and list, how do insert/attach pdf and photos? i don't see the paper clip for attachments.  any help would be greatly appreciated.   Thank you!

does anyone know if the usmc updates the awards section on dd214 for men and women who served in Gulf War (or any war) and were discharged before their unit got all their citations?  i.e., I had heard that they did dd215 or something to correct/augment the dd214's for discharged veterans.  Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.  

Yes, it is posted above

Welcome to the forum, Peter! Dave

stanley karnow wrote a good book about it, i believe the title is "In Our Image" or something like that.  I loved his book on Vietnam as well. 

the u.s. was brutal.  not taught in schools.  

I believe this to be the 575th Bomb Squadron / 391st Bomb Group Type III | Australian embroidery on wool. | Design by Leon Schlesinger, Warner Bros. A variation in design, but believed to be the 530th due to attribution.

Yup. Though it does seem wierd my great grandfather didn't get a DFC for flying in 50 missions. Though 44 counted as combat ones. 6 for some reason didn't. Could that be why

Thanks I believe you right after a closer inspection. Anything on the approximate year?

Oh wow that seems to help my answer. Thank you for your help
