9TH INFANTRY DIVISION
#1

Can anyone shed any light on the 9th Infantry Division. T/5 Morris, my wifes dad, lived through the war and died just a few years ago. I never met him but my wife has his purple heart and his CIB (awarded 21 August 1944). She also has his discharge papers which list his Decorations and awards.

He was awarded the Distinguished Unit Badge, Purple heart, E A M E Campaign Medal with 3 Bronze Stars, American Defense Service Medal, and the Good Conduct Medal. Under battles and campaigns: Normandy, Northern France, Rhineland. At the end of this are GO 33 WD 45.

 

This discharge paper says he was wounded 11 June 1944.

 

Just as before I don't bring very much to the table but any information will be appreciated.
