Photos A 13 Preusslitz (1) to (10)

Hi-resolution photos of the ceremony where I was awarded the Bronze Star with V for Valor. See the story on page 242. 

Photos 7 and 8 show two tankers receiving their medals as well. I do not know their names, but I include their photos here to honor them.

One of the Pershing tanks of the 1st Battalion, 66th AR parked behind us gave the entire ceremony some muscle.

(My dad did not want to include photos 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The photos show him arriving late. He was holding up the entire ceremony. – FGB)
