Bronze Star

I was contimplateing to write a short story about my Dad. I don't have all the detaiuls because he doesn't talk much about it. I read an news article about the incident my Dad was awarded the bronze star for. I read it years ago. My Grandmother, Nona as we call her, had it in her room.

Basically, I want to write a story that refelcts:

The Bronze Star Medal is awarded to any person who, while serving in any capacity in or with the military of the United States after 6 December 1941, distinguished himself or herself by heroic or meritorious achievement or service, not involving participation in aerial flight, while engaged in an action against an enemy of the United States; while engaged in military operations involving conflict with an opposing foreign force; or while serving with friendly foreign forces engaged in an armed conflict against an opposing armed force in which the United States is not a belligerent party.

I'll piece a bunch of materials together.
