Comments: Ben was wounded in November, 1952, severe scrapnel wounds to lower legs, spent 2 months in US Army Hospital in Japan. Came home with his Purple Heart ribbon (no medal) and a full disability pension because of his wounds. His records didn't accompany him and the Army tells us his records were "destoryed by fire". We believe this to be a lie. Ben died 7 Apr 1992 from lead poisoning after his body absorbed the scrapnel too deeply embedded to be removed. He never received his pension or Purple Heart. Anyone who knew Ben or remembers him, perhaps your recollections would be of help in obtained what is due him from this country for his serice and sacrifice. He was a welder, working on constructing an airstrip for Allied planes when wounded in a motar attack, Nov. 1952. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
