SOUTHWEST MIAMI-DADE, Fla. (WSVN) -- The family of a World War II veteran received a touching tribute.

Some medals of honor, which were destroyed in a fire have now been replaced. The original medals belonged to an Air Force captain.

On Veterans Day, Florida Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen was able to re-issue the medals to the Air Force officer's family in Southwest Miami-Dade.
