Description: This listing is more aimed for those who seek to preserve history almost lost to time. Now found within the folds of modern marketplaces, I attempt to find as much information about their service, along with photos, obituaries, any other information pertaining to the individual. My hope is the buyer of this item will take the due-diligence to keep the veteran's memory alive and preserve their documents and items as long as they can. May God bless those past and present who sacrifice so much for us, and may their sacrifice never be in vain. This is the Army Good Conduct Medal that is named to Refugio H Villarreal. He was born on either November 28th or December 1st 1924 in Arizona (There is conflicting information on his birth date, but his death date, SSN, and service number line up), moving to Los Angeles as a farmhand on a fruit farm before registering his draft card and enlisting in the US Army October or November of 1943 and discharging on November 7, 1945. If you cross reference the screenshots you'll see information is consistent and inconsistent, though the likely chance of two people with the same name, surname, and middle initial being born three days away from each other and enlisting on the same exact day is unlikely. Refugio died on September 4th 1980 and is buried at Oakdale Memorial Park in Glendora, California. The medal is in good condition, has a circle marking from an adhesive tag. His name is misspelt as "Refugo" instead of "Refugio". There isn't any record of an enlisted soldier named Refugo. Shipped with USPS Ground Advantage. International Shipping and combined shipping is offered.
