Treasurer launches Operation Purple Heart

Illinois State Treasurer Michael Frerichs has launched Operation Purple Heart, a mission to return 11 Purple Heart medals to their rightful owners.

The military honors were submitted to the treasurer’s office for safekeeping and return as part of the Unclaimed Property program, also known as I-Cash or missing money.

The treasurer’s office is releasing a limited amount of information that the owners or their relatives might recognize so medals can be returned to families.
