Paul R Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Another great Order. Is there a citation/summary of deeds with this one? I bet that it will be interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Garvy Posted July 22, 2010 Author Share Posted July 22, 2010 (edited) Yes, it would be nice to see his citation, but sadly, this was all I received, his Award Card and Temporary Certificate; paperwork can be lost.
