LCpl Mark Lefler 9054551 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My parents are dead, my aunts and uncles on that side of the family are dead. I have a lot of military stuff from my moms brother(Vietnam) and my moms cousin(Korea). This includes a purple heart. Letters from Vietnam etc.. It&#39;s interesting stuff, but it generally takes up space. Stuff could sit in my uncles sea trunk for generations that don&#39;t care about it. I don&#39;t know if there is some museum or historical society that would want it? What do I do with military items from past family generations including medals, letters etc..? 2025-12-23T11:33:31-05:00 LCpl Mark Lefler 9054551 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My parents are dead, my aunts and uncles on that side of the family are dead.

At ours, the curator will make a whole display about one person if they are local and there&#39;s a story to tell - like letters, etc. Or, those items can be part of a larger grouping on the Vietnam or Korean war.
