    The family of Army Sgt. Lawrence V. Blanchet, WWII Veteran, who was killed in action on the Italian front while serving with the 92nd Infantry “Buffalo” Division in 1945 takes a moment during a formal military ceremony presenting them with Sgt. Blanchet’s Silver Star. During the ceremony the family received Blanchet’s Silver Star in a formal presentation as well as a U.S. flag. The ceremony also included three volleys of shots fired, taps played and a flag folding presentation. Army Reserve soldiers from throughout the Chicago land area came together to conduct the ceremony for the Blanchet family.
