The
military recognizes that military medals are often a cherished part of
family history and makes replacement medals, decorations, and awards
available to veterans or their next of kin if the veteran is no longer
living or able to make the request on his or her own behalf.
Requests
for replacement medals, decorations, and awards should be made to the
veteran’s respective branch of service, with the exception of Army and
Air Force (including Army Air Corps) veterans; requests should be sent
to the National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) in St. Louis where the
records will be reviewed and verified. The NPRC will then forward the
requests to the respective service where the medal, decoration, or award
will be issued.
