Background

Scope and content:

The collection contains artifacts from James Clifford Stewart and W.A. Fletcher, Sr. (brothers or brothers- in-law). There are eight medals and one memorial flag. The memorial flag (08.0012.09) is a 48-star flag given to the family after Stewart was declared MIA in 1945, then dead in 1946. The donor is unsure which medals belong to which man. The medals are a WWII Victory Medal (08.0012.01); a National Defense Service Medal (08.0012.02); an Army Good Conduct Medal (08.0012.03); a Regimental Crest of the 3rd Batallion, 16th Field Artillery (08.0012.04); a WWII Victory Medal Bar (08.0012.05); an American Campaign Medal bar (08.0012.06); a European-African-Middle East Campaign Medal bar (08.0012.07); and an Army Combat Infantry Badge, Award 1 (08.0012.08). No more information is provided about the men in the collection, but more may be donated in the future. Information about the Regimental Crest and the potential owners of the medals are in the Master File.
