They certainly deserve something, and if those at the Pentagon received it, so should he, for the reality is that we may not be at war with Islam, but a significant portion of Islam is at war with us. I know the argument will be that he wasn't 'Al Qaeda,' but this new enemy operates at an independent, cellular level.
Look at this fine young soldier that was murdered:
before you say "fine young soldier".. many in the Army are scum. Trust me as others will attest to that. Many can not make it in the real world, so they join the Army to escape. Then they become problems and are coddled due to the PC rules that the DOD and Politicians implemented. So, they pretty much lower the bar of quality you would expect in the Army. FACT!
They don't deserve anything like a PH, end of story.
