Wow what a legacy to leave behind. I know from your stories that your Dad was a great American, a Patriot and a Hero, I'm sure it is reflected in your son as it is in you. I thank all of you for your service to our country and to keeping us safe. I'm sure your son will cherish it as it has special meaning to him as he is following in his Grandfather's footsteps. May God's blessings be with him and keep him safe until he returns home and may your father rest at the side of our Lord.

I like the idea of the note for each medal to state it's meaning and should also state what action it came from as that would enhance it's meaning to us civilians who know little about the meaning of the medals.

Thanks for posting,
