Veteran awarded Bronze Star for WWII service, decades later
James H. Osborne, a 59-year-old retired Army medic, received a Bronze Star for World War II actions in Italy and North Africa though he has not seen combat since. He suspects records reviews led to the award and notes he previously earned the Combat Medical Badge and other service medals, with the Bronze Star arriving by mail last week.
