Do you have a photo of his ribbons?  We're going to need some more details to help you out here.

And you might want to edit the post to remove your email address.  Your choice, but it is suggested...

his ex burnt the pics and sold his ribbons is why i need to research it. is there anyway to do that?

- Different methods, depending on whose military he was in.

- I spent five days on Guam summer 2002.  Do you like it there?

If in the CF, then I would imagine requests would have to be sent through the Access To Information and Privacy.

this site is very confussing how do you navigate it and such?

 

[Reccesoldier]

Ok.

It took me about 2 minutes to find this on the website under FAQ.  Get off your lazy butt and find the rest yourself.
