226853 PFC. George Paul Pisano United States Army 242nd Infantry Regiment from:Chicago, IL George Pisano was my father. He passed away in the mid-1960s when I was a child. According to my mother, he never spoke about his time in the service. I'm researching to find out more about him and what he experienced as a POW while imprisoned in Stalag 4b Muhlberg Sachsen 51 13 in 1944-1945. There was a box of letters, pictures and medals that were a part of him that were lost after our move from IL to California. While researching online, I found out that all his military records except for a final paycheck and discharge certificate were burned in a fire, according to military records, so I don't know what medals he had been awarded. I would like to have copies of whatever medals or commendations he may have received and would appreciate suggestions on how I might be able to accomplish this.
