Military Monday (December 29, 2014) -- WWII War Zone Bar Awards to Arnold G. Tew, Jr.






I posted on March 18, 2013 about my father's WWII service in the U.S. Merchant Marine. That post can be seen here. I mentioned in the previous post that my father served in all the recognized theaters of war during World War II and included a photograph of his service award medals and bars. Recently the original War Zone Bar award cards were discovered amongst some family records.  Those original cards are now shown above.
