I miss him so much.<br><br>As far as the abbreviations go...these are the abbreviations listed on the actual award list on the government form. They have had me stumped. I have his silver bomber wings, but I do not remember seeing an eagle on anything. One of the items replaced was also the 'Ruptured Duck'.<br><br>I am awaiting the last medal and then I intend to send them to be mounted. Sadly, I cannot find rank patches to mount from the WWII period (TSgt) or an extra set of his retirement rank, which was SMSgt. I would like to have mounted them both.<br><br>I have seen many commemorative medals and have considered them. How would I know which ones he is eligible for? <br><br>I will look through Dad's pictures as time permits and if I see any that might be you...I will definitely send them to you as you may be able to help me identify them.<br><br>Hopefully I can find pictures of and Sgt Hill with Dad.You can email me privately any time.<br><br>Jackie (Sharp) Sheflin<br></td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table>
