Coast Guard Warriors - Part of The Mix

Coast Guard Medal Awardees of World War II.
©Bill Wells, 1998.

This listing may be incomplete. The award information was complied from the Coast Guard Bulletin January 1946; November 1946; December 1946; February 1947; May 1947; June 1947; September 1947; October 1947; November 1947; February 1948. These lists contain the personal awards from 1941. The arrangement of the awards is by the order of precedence for the 1940s or by groupings for ease of reading. Oddly the list of Purple Heart awardees was not given in the official list. This may be because of public morale was still an issue. If anyone has additional lists please contact me. EMAIL
