Baseball and the Bronze Star

[Volod]

Pretty sure that Warren Spahn got one for his service in the Battle of the Bulge. There weren't that many MLB players that got that close to really heavy action. Might be a tough list to research.

Yeah, I think it might take a little bit but shouldn't be too tough. I was able to find lists of players that at least served during the wars so I could just search on each one. It will take awhile but should be fun as well as introduce me to players I knew nothing about!

[Volod]

Great! I'm sure others would like to see the list, as well, so maybe you could post it here when you get it done. How about Purple Hearts or DFC's?

[BCauley]

I will most definitely post when I am done.

As of right now, just going to focus on the Bronze Star as there is a personal element to this little quest of mine in the first place. And no, I'm not related to any baseball players who got the Bronze Star.
