Hi Connie:
We briefly touched base via email, but wanted to talk more here.
Hopefully you've had the chance to check out my research section, especially the part regarding obtaining his DD214's. The majority of people I run into, are still told that the only place they can obtain these records are at NARA in St Louis. I find it very sad, for so many people simply stop searching and give up, thinking that all the records were burned in the fire of 73.

Wouldn't it be wonderful is someone saw your post and could either 1) reunite you with your Uncle Jay, or 2) his immediate family?
If you can place the photos on the website, that would be extremely helpful.
Warmly,
