Moppert Purple Heart
Retired Maj. Gen. Robert M. Worley II presents former 1st Lt. Edward Moppert with a Purple Heart medal Nov. 26, 2011, at the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. Moppert was wounded and held as a prisoner of war during World War II, and he was never presented with nor did his records reflect receiving the medal. Worley and members of the Air Force Analysis Assessments & Lessons Learned at the Pentagon, worked with Defense Department officials to get his official records corrected.
