Bob,
Thank you for your reply.
I have no idea where my father was stationed in the U.S. He didn't talk about the war too much. I wasn't until about a year or so ago that my father showed my brother and I the Silver Star he earned during the war. He would not tell us what he did to earn it tho or where he was when he did. The only thing he did tell us about it is that they were "Giving them away like candy". I know that isn't true. They don't just give them away.
My father was a member at 1 time of the 1st Cavalry. He also mention he was in France the day before the D-Day invasion and he was also at the Battle of the Bulge. Other than that, i have very little information.
My brother and I plan to try and obtain a copy of his DD-214 if it still exists. His was lost years ago.
