Hello Angelinelambert,
Thank you for posting your question on History Hub!
To request a replacement set of awards and decorations, please visit the National Archives website and submit your request through the National Personnel Records Center, which has a specific link handling replacement awards: Military Awards and Decorations.
Please note that the replacement awards do not come from the National Personnel Records Center; that is a function of the individual service branch. The NPRC is responsible for reviewing the veteran's service record and submitting a list of entitled awards to the service branch, who then verify and mail the awards to the veteran. If you have questions regarding this process, please consult the National Archives website for guidance.
On a final note, the service branch only issues one replacement set of awards and decorations. If a replacement set was already issued, a list of previously issued awards can be provided.
We hope this information has been helpful!
