My father lived through his service to our country and was awarded his medal personally. Many did not. To the brave men and women who lost their lives defending our freedom, Thank You!
Beautiful medal...wonderful thought and sentiment. To your dad and all the men and women who came before and after him who may not have received a medal but gave of themselves to this great country of ours with honor and tremendous sacrifice...God bless!
Happy Memorial Day, Ms Anthropy.... thank you for posting something to remind us of what this day is about besides just bbq'ing, sunshine and family.... it's about much more... =)

Is that a purple heart medal? I don't think I've ever seen one. What a special treasure for you to have.
Hope you're enjoying your weekend!

That is awesome that he got a Purple Heart (and that he lived to receive it in person)
Kristy, He was fortunate, indeed. It came close to being a different scenario.
Wow, I've never actually seen a photo of the award. You're father was truly a great man.
Very awesome cool! No wonder you are so great! You had great genes! Wonderful tribute!
Fortunately for you and the rest of your family, your father was alive to receive his well deserved award. I like the picture.
