Finally a silver wound badge (Purple Heart), least it doesn't apear to be black so he got banged up a few times. Can't read his cuff and too lazy to look it up. Sorry Boomer, he's not a member of of the NSDAP (nazi) just a combat pilot and probably loved pork chops. May I nominate myself as TOOL of the Day? Cheers H

You forgot to mention the First Place Award from the San Antonio World Rodeo Competition- as evidenced by his belt buckle.
