My Uncle Bill received a Silver Star after leading a scouting patrol into German territory in Anzio . He lost an arm, a leg and part of his skull as well as all but one other man in his group. He was a small town hero but kept his Silver Star in the attic and unknown to most of his family. They found it in the attic when they were moving long after he had passed after the death of his beloved wife.
