Croix de Guerre Citation 247
July 15, 1946
Ben,
In my travels to France with my father I met a great man at the French Embassy in Washington, D.C. He is the command Sergeant Major there and he sent me this certificate awarded to the 517th PRCT in 1946. I have never seen it before and wondered if any one else has. See the attached copy.
