Re: Seeking Distinguished Flying Cross citation for George Grabner

Please see the following below. You can now take this and will need to find the HQ 15th AAF General Order# 3332 for 1944. I cannot find the information but someone posted earlier that you can request at the Air force Archives and they have the contact information.Maybe they can help to provide contact information. Julia if you have not done so already i would also suggest trying to request his military records as well.
Thanks,
Elliot Schneider

Julia Bloomer May 26, 2020 2:12 PM (in response to Elliot Schneider)Thank you so much! I'm amazed to see all the info you already provided and I will definitely investigate further. Uncle George and my Aunt Venice did not have any children, so there haven't been others trying to look into his service.
Thanks again and bless you!!
Julia
