7/29/08- Service

Bakersfield, California

I had lost my service medals over the years.
Although I had only acquired them during my brief three years of Army service,
I asked my Congressional representative, Kevin McCarthy, to help me get them back.
He graciously inquired on my behalf and shortly thereafter I was surprised with the medals
and my Sharpshooter Medal to boot.
I do not care for guns but was proud of my Sharpshooter medal with the M-15,
I was also awarded the National Defense Service Medal and the Good Conduct Medal.

How appropriate you should win a "sharpshooter" medal Doug - maybe you should get another one for your photography!

Wonderful photo of your Service Medals. You must be glad to have them back.
