Default A WWII Vets Heads Up!

I was doing some research on my Dad and just became aware that all WWII Army vets who served in the European Campaigns that received the Combat Infantry Badge (CIB) are also entitled to the Bronze Star Medal. Also any vet discharged prior to the end of WWII is also eligible for the Victory Medal WWII. Many vets never received medals that were earned, because brass, copper, etc., were used in the making of munitions. If you know of any WWII vet who hasn't received their medals, give them a heads up about their eligibility.
