Normally you would search for unit awards on NDAWS, but I believe the database does not go back to WWII.I checked, and USS KIMBERLY came up with no matches for unit awards. https://awards.navy.mil/awards/w... is how you would normally look.According to wikipedia, Kimberly received five battle stars for World War II and one star for Korean War service.If you want something more official than that, you need to fill out an SF180 form and submit that.Decorations and Medals (Awards) is a link, but here is what it says:Veterans or next-of kin of deceased veterans can obtain and fill out SF 180, Request Pertaining To Military Records or write a letter to request replacement awards. Each request should be filled out neatly and should include the veteranu2019s complete name used while in service, rank, service number, social security number, branch of service, dates of service (date entered and date released), and it should be signed by the veteran or the next of kin if the veteran is deceased. If using the SF 180, check the u201cOtheru201d box in section II, paragraph 1, and enter u201creplacement awardsu201d. Supporting documentation such as discharge paperwork or the veteranu2019s DD Form 214 or other military records can help speed the process. Mail your request to one of the following addresses:Veterans separated in or after 1998:NAVY PERSONNEL COMMANDPERS-312A5720 INTEGRITY DRIVEMILLINGTON, TN 38055-3120Veterans separated before 1998:NATIONAL PERSONNEL RECORDS CENTER1 ARCHIVES DRIVEST.
