I added his bronze star category and a link to his obituary. The obit says he was a PFC Corporal, which isn't a real rank. He was either a PFC or a Corporal.

Ok Thanks,  how can we find out more about his correct rank?
Thanks
I got it.

The obit had no unit, so I don't know if that's available unless you have his records. I did add the link to his obituary, so you can read it by clicking the link, even if you are not a subscriber to newspapers.com.

Also added a photo of the bronze star, but if you don't like it, you can just remove it.

Thanks for creating this profile, Donnie.
Ok Natalie Trott, Thanks for helping.
You're welcome. I added a category for Baptist Ministers since his obituary said he was that.
Ok Great do I need to add being a minister or Corp to his name or just let it be. Thanks again
I did that . Rev is up in the Prefix and CPL is in the sticker.
Thank you for helping
Happy to do it, Donnie. :-) You are welcome.
