The_Capt Posted October 12, 2001 Share Posted October 12, 2001 Don't you guys have a Veterans Affairs department. They keep all of the service records of Veterans here in Canada. I also know that England has a similar dept. I had an NCO write them to get replacement medals which were awarded to his father and they sent them along with his dads pay records and release papers.

The US Government LOVES its veterans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
