I'm trying to find info on my Grandfather, that served on the USS Cabot CV 28 and the USS Yorktown. I was trying to locate his medals and service records. How do I go about finding out this Info????? Also, he fell off the carrier and was picked up on the Destroyer USS Rich, during a combat mission. LOL. Not sure how to find his service records. Oakie

Oakie,
I think this will be your ticket:
Hope that helps. Good luck!
Frogdog beat me to it, I got all my father's records and a replacement for all of his medals. It does take a long time though, if I remember it was over six months.
My wife's father was also on the Yorktown, my dad was on the Hornet (CV-12) and the Wasp (CV-7)
Yep Frogdog got it,,
