Why do you ask my opinion on almost every single post I make trying to bait me into what you’re assuming my stance will be?

I agree with Lord Ratner’s take on it. I think a DFC with valor and a Purple Heart, but I don’t think it crosses over into MoH territory. To me it takes a type of gallantry such as saving life/lives of fellow service members while being attacked or superior heroism (e.g. John Leviton). I do respect the fact it’s hard, if not impossible, to directly compare the combat events and actions of the recipients to each other. But in the end I’m not the POTUS, so it doesn’t really matter what I think.

Dude, are you ok?

I’m more concerned that you might not be ok than a silly online discussion. Seriously bud—feel free to DM me, definitely not trying to play any games.

I've never been shot but I've flown a few helicopters and I think it's a tremendous accomplishment to fly a bus into a hot LZ with a few bullet holes in your body. Good job Slover.
