Because 2007 occurred during a wartime period for the US, no list exists naming all recipients of the PH Medal. I suspect a list would contain hundreds (if not thousands) of names. And because the war continues, most probably hundreds (or thousands) more will be added.

Mississippi's purple heart winners?

The Purple Heart is our nation's FIRST medal; and General Washington did state, "...that it's amazing what men will do for a simple piece of purple cloth..."(purple cloth was the first purple heart medal). States "might" not publish a list of Purple Heart recipients for public review, and any list you might find on the web are most likely "voluntarily submitted" names. Which means that a lot of men who don't use the computer won't have their names listed.


How do you earn the Victoria Cross?

The Victoria cross is earned by an act of bravery in war situations by the British and commonwealth forces. It was started by Queen Victoria in the 19th century and has been carried on ever since. One of the most recent soldiers to receive it was Private Johnson Beharry. The medal will be similar in standing to the American Purple Heart. I hope you find this helpful. The Victoria Cross is nothing like the American equivalent of a purple heart. The Purple heart is awarded to anyone who is injured in battle. The Victoria cross is awarded for extraordinary acts of bravery in the face of the enemy. It is the highest honer which can be bestowed upon a member of the armed forces of commonwealth countries. It is similar in standing to the American Medal of Honor. You really should not be posting answers like the one above if you don't know what your talking about. I am sure the person who posted this response above did not intended any disrespect but is disrespectful to all those brave diggers who have been awarded the cross to have it compared to a purple heart.


Is there a list of Purple Heart recipients from World War 1?

The noted website has a link to a general database of Purple Heart recipients. However it is alphabetically rather than chronologically categorized, one would need to know the name(s) that they are seeking or would need to search the entire database, and it is incomplete. http://www.militaryindexes.com (General Databases, Medals and Awards, Purple Heart Database) Postel, John Richard


How would you earn a purple heart?

I have been wondering this myself and have been advised by military officials that if your command does not put in the paper work before leaving service your out of luck. You have to be nominated for every medal, even the PH, though the sterotype is that its automatic - its not. There are many troops in our situation. I had injuries myself in 2006 but was medically discharged before my command could put my paperwork in for anything. Then again there are loop holes for everything (just look at the marine who lost his leg that stayed in the USMC and even deployed again to OEF with his unit. So, keep your eye out and keep asking. You might find someone to help you, but from my experience, its slim. Best of luck to you.
