    3. Hi everyone, Back in the snowy winter when I was home for a few days running, I ordered my dad's military records. In less than a week, a big envelope full of papers and photos arrived, with an unexpected notice that the medals and awards would follow. I was surprised and delighted by that, but when I checked the status tracker they gave me every couple of weeks, it always said the medals would be shipped when stocks were replenished. Last week, it suddenly had a ship date of June 14-July 14. The date changed every day for 3 days (I started checking often!) and then this morning it said the medals had been shipped yesterday at 3:37. So for the people who asked about this back in winter - the medals seem to be taking about 6 months, in my case. I'll let you know how long it takes them to get from Philly to me, 2.5 hours away :-) Judi
