Purple Heart United has awarded the Armenian American Veterans a metal belonging to a past member of the AAV. The medal was awarded to Krikor George Romian. The medal is the Bronze Star Medal. George worked for the RMV out of Lowell Mass. The Purple Heart United's gave us the medal hoping that we can find a home for it. I have emailed a couple of people, but no one seems to know if there are any relatives of George living. George changed his name to Krikor George Romian Keoshian after his mother remarried. Purple Heart United (purpleheartunited.org) founder Zachariah Fike asked if we would find it's home.
The Bronze Star medal is given to a service man for heroism. It is the fourth highest military decoration for valor.
I am asking everyone out there to dig deep. If you know of anyone that could help us find a home, the Armenian American Veterans would appreciate it. You can leave us an email at [email protected]
Thank you
