I have all of the original newspaper clippings he sent home to Grandma & his Mom. I also have his original discharge papers, service medals, and the telegram he had sent to his Mother telling her he was coming back home at the end of the war. I would love to have more info on him. I do know there were photos taken of him in the ring. I had seen one of them when I was a small child. Following the War, Grandpa owned his own business, became a MO. State Boxing Commissioner, a Shriner, and my life long inspiration. Thanks for any help anyone can provide. Proud Grand Daughter of a Marine.
