Senior Master Sergeant Jackson was a Reservist with extensive active duty time, but The Virtual Wall has no information regarding the location and nature of his service. He was too young to have served during the Korean War but may well have been involved in any of the "Cold War" actions during the 50s and 60s and may well have served one or more earlier tours in Vietnam. The Virtual Wall can display only those awards we know he received ... we regret that we cannot honor him properly.
