Re: Silver Star Citation

3 people found this helpfulDear Mr. Harvey,
Thank you for sharing your question with the History Hub.
We were able to locate General Order #20 (GO 20), which recommends that your uncle be awarded the Silver Star, in the 1946 General Orders file for the 4th Infantry Division (file 304-1.13). The file is part of the series World War II Operations Reports, 1940-1948 in National Archives Record Group 407: Records of the Adjutant General’s Office, and GO 20 can be found in container 5673. These records are in the custody of the Textual Reference Branch at the National Archives in College Park, MD (Archives II). You can contact them directly at archives2reference@nara.gov to request a copy of the document.
Thank you, again, for posting your question to the History Hub.
