    Graphic made for social media in honor of Purple Heart Day, Aug. 7, 2017. The Purple Heart was originally established by Gen. George Washington in 1782. It is presented to any person wounded in action while serving with the armed forces of the United States. It is also awarded posthumously to the next of kin of personnel killed or having died of wounds received in action after April 5, 1917. (U.S. Air Force graphic by Staff Sgt. Areca T. Bell)
