I have spent time going through my father's WWII and Korean War records and was blessed to find documents that my mother didn't even know existed. They have given me a lot of information about his time in Korea.
Jerry Herron...if you're out there (tried contacting you via the email address listed), I knew your name sounded familiar to me and now I know why. I know a couple/few of you vets attended my dad's funeral...thank you!!!

Unlike other metals we found, these did not have my father's name on the, they each had a different name. My fathers name was Master Sergeant Joseph H. White, RA12111763 Infatry, US Army, involved in the Korean Conflict. He received the Bronze Star. I was wondering why he had these metals in his possession and if they belonged to someone else, how would I go about delivering them to the correct person. Can you help?
