New and Eager to Learn
Hi!
I've recently inherited my grandfather's and great uncle's medals, ribbons, and assorted other military items that were stored away a long time ago.
Altough my grandfather stayed stateside, my uncle was part of the 9th Infantry Division, Special Troops Signal Company. (I hope that's right, I'm going by his association card.) I've done some reasearch with the little information I have, and I'm hoping to learn more about his time in Africa and Europe.
