What I am doing for veterans

I do it PRO BONO - out of respect to veterans - some of them passed away and I did it for the family. When I heard about a veteran or veteran's family - I arrange the awards in a frame and give it to them.

Here is an example:

Tal,

Great job! I take it that his original awards were taken from him at the Soviet customs, and these are replacements, right? This is so unfair!

Those are the original medals of this veteran. Some were missing, some he got here in Israel. He died last year and I did it for his daughter, who works with my wife.

Tal,

I saw a missing combat Service, so I figured they must have taken his original awards when he left Russia, and the poor guy had to buy replacements.
