I checked my mail today and there was a wonderful surprise; my dad's Battle of the Bulge Certificate. Hooray! How appropriate too because the 60th Anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge is this month.
It's a beautiful document and I am going to have it framed this week. It will be my Christmas present to myself. .
So please let me pay honors to all those who fought in the Ardennes/Alsace Campaign. May God bless you for your service to our country. We do appreciate you more than we can say.
Here's a look at it. It's rather large so I couldn't scan the entire document. Looks like they will have to re-do it because it should say, 540th Combat Engineer Regiment or Group. Minor detail for now. I can always get that corrected.
