Illinois State Treasurer Michael Frerichs is searching for assistance locating the rightful owners of several Purple Heart Awards.
Since Frerichs became treasurer in 2014, his office has rightfully returned seven Purple Hearts.
Frerichs encourages you to check out the list of names. If you recognize one, even if it is a friend’s name, then Frerichs wants you to create a claim.
He finishes by saying that if you know anyone who served in the military that lost a medal, you should encourage them to make a claim.
