The attched are pictures of myself and two members of my family that have received the Purple Heart.
First my father Staff Sergeant Howard E. Morris, KIA 19 November 1944, Belgium. 26th Division, 104th Infantry Regt.
Second is my Fourth Purple Heart. Vietnam. Served with the 240th Assault Helicopter Company, 1st Aviation Brigade (Greyhounds and Maddogs) 1968. D-Co, 101st Aviation BN, 101st Airborne Division (Hawks) 1971-1972. Shot down seven times during both tours. (Just noticed on my page shows 57 OLC on the purple heart, sorry only have 3 OLC. Wife made the page and I missed it on the proof, gotta blame it on someone)
