No
That medal was awarded to an individual not the family.
It would be a violation of Title 10 US Code, a federal offense.
May decendants of a deceased veteran, who was awarded a Purple Heart Medal, wear it on Veteran's Day?
You are free to do anything you want with the medal. However just remember that is awarded to that person with honor and you should only do something that is tasteful and respectful. It may be considered offensive to some so I recomend asking a Vienam Vet what they think.
Reply:did you earn that medal NO so therefore NO and besides its illegal as well
Reply:That medal, like all military medals are to be worn by the personnel who earned it. Know one else is entitled to wear these medals, to do so is a violation of protocol!
Reply:No, it should only be worn by those who have earned it. Why not make a nice shadow box with all the veterans awards and decorations in with a plaque showing when he/she served.
Reply:I seriously doubt it, only the awarded may wear it but relatives could display it. Not sure if it is written law or military courtesy.
Reply:No. All ribbons and/or metals received while in the military are worn only by the individual who earned them.
Reply:NO! never wear something that you didnt out right earn yourself. thats like me catching the bad guy and you taking all the credit. its not fair
