Col. James P. Fleming USAF Medal of Honor Autograph

Here is another example of writing to a Medal of Honor Recipeint requesting an autograph and getting back more than I sent. A few years ago a used the Congressional Medal Of Honor Society 40 Patriots Point Road Mt. Pleasant, SC 29464 address to mail out my request. In about a week I had back all I sent him ( a copy of his citation, and the 8x10 poster I created for him) along with extra copies of his citation, and an autographed photo of himself in Vietnam. It…

Col. Mitchell Paige: Medal of Honor Autograph

This is the 4th in my VALOR series of blogs. Col Mitchell Paige was the 2nd MOH Recipient I sent a poster too and one of the many who sent back more than I asked for including a very nice letter commenting on my work. It ment and still means so much to me that a Marine as great as he was took the time to tell me; " I have autographed hundreds since WWII but none as attactive as those you sent me."

Known in the Marines simply…

Lt. John W. Finn, USN Medal of Honor autograph

A favorite in my collection. I created the poster and sent it out for him to sign about 3 yrs ago when he was 98 yrs old. To be honest I never thought I'd get it back, but about 2 weeks later my SASE was at the door. I send these out usally 2 or 3 at a time so when one comes back it is always a surprise to see who's inside. I was so utterly amazed he would take the time to sign and get it back to me so quickly.

What a great guy and what a bold autograph! I have seen…

RADM. Eugene B. Fluckey, Medal of Honor autograph

This is some of the work I do to help preserve our history of American Valor. I create these posters and then humbly ask the recipient to sign them for me.

Rear Admiral Eugene "Lucky" Fluckley what an amazing story! Commander of the U.S.S Barb, a submarine in WWII, and the only sub ever to sink a train. One of the highest decorated US Servicemen, I really wanted to do his poster justice. In terms of valor,…

PFC Jacklyn H. Lucas, USMCR Medal of Honor autograph

This is some of the work I do to help preserve our history of American Valor. I create these posters and then humbly ask the recipient to sign them for me. Jack was the 1st MOH Recipient I asked for an autograph and the very nice letter he sent me back with the photo gave me the "greenlight" so to speak to create more posters of these great men. I was very nervous at first doing this, and why not, here is a Marine Corps legend and I a mere Marine was going to…
