Great idea for a thread.
My father in law Stan Kras is staying with us this weekend. 97 years young and part of the greatest generation.
Battle of Guadalcanal
Private First Class Stanley J. Kras, United States Army, was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for extraordinary heroism in connection with military operations against an armed enemy while serving with the 132d Infantry Regiment, Americal Division, in action against enemy forces on 2 January 1943. Private First Class Kras' intrepid actions, personal bravery and zealous devotion to duty exemplify the highest traditions of the military forces of the United States and reflect great credit upon himself, the Americal Division, and the United States Army.
