U S Army Vietnam War Veteran Gus Albritton who is now 71 years age is happy that his Purple Heart Medal that he earned during his service in the armed forces that was stolen from his home in 1982 in Brooksfield Florida where he was living at the time was stolen by a crook.
Gus who now lives in Dublin Georgia was heartbroken that a crook would enter his home and steal his Purple Heart Medal along with other objects inside of his home.
Gus had faith that one day he would reunite with his Purple Heart Medal one day. Gus did report to the authorities that his Purple Heart Medal was stolen.
Call it a miracle from Above since someone named Jaime Bath purchased a Purple Heart Medal at a yard sale in Brooksfield Florida. Jaime found the name of Gus engraved in the back of the medal.
Jaime sent the missing Purple Heart Medal back via mail to Gus who wants to meet Jaime in person and thank him personally for returning his precious medal from Vietnam back to him.

Precious possessions have ways of coming back to the owner.
