Is there a list of purple heart recipients from world war 1 and world war 2?
No, there is not a consolidated list.This medal has been earned by over 800,000 individuals. There are several reasons that there is no such list. First, due to the number of servicemen who have been and are being awarded the Purple Heart, creating and maintaining such a list would be nearly impossible. Secondly, not all awards of the the Purple Heart have been documented, and many of the recipients themselves, the only ones who still remember their award, have died, and so the fact that they received this decoration has been forgotten.Also, just an FYI--the NARA (National Archive) in St Louis suffered a major fire in ca. 1969 many, many veteran's records were completely lost (over 60%).AnswerThe official site from the government is linked to the right as "National WWII Memorial."
