At the direction of President Hoover, General Douglas MacArthur revived the Purple Heart decoration in 1932. to be awarded to combat-wounded war veterans. Shortly after the award was re-instituted, a group of combat-wounded veterans in Connecticut formed the first chapter of the Military Order of the Purple Heart organization whose members were composed of veterans having received the Purple Heart Medal.
