John and all interested vets.

I spoke with the VA regional office and they advise the foillowing.
The easiest way to obtain medals and awards for a veteran is to submit a letter to wit:

"As the legal next of kin I request that I be issued all award emblems that (NAME) was entitled to. A copy of the seperation document is enclosed."

Send this request and include the following information:
Vet Social Security number
DD 214
Service number
VA file number (get it from your regional office)
date of birth (DOB)
place of birth
date of death

Include your name, address and phone number

This letter ands information should be sent to the following address. The counselor indicated it be typed this way so you may want to copy and paste it. This info is specific to the ARMY.

US ARMY RESERVE
ATTN:DARP-PAS-EAW
9700 PAGE BLVD
ST LOUIS MO 63132-5100

Again this process takes time. I was told it could take a year to complete your request so be patient. Hope this helps
