I just found out that my ex father-in-law sold all of the General's memorabilia about 5 years ago to a collector. This included all of his medals. Recently, his diary from the war years was found and I have been promised at least a chance to read it (I will probably end up keeping it for my daughter). From what I hear, the diary has information about his interaction with a lot of interesting people. I am looking forward to getting my hands on it.
