Did this “writer” OLIVIA KATRANDJIAN, win her job because she was female? She has no idea how the military awards medals.
The Medal of Honor is bestowed upon an individual by the passing of a Joint Resolution in the Congress[not verified in body]. It is then presented to the recipient or, for posthumous awards, to next of kin. The President of the United States presents the medal in person, on behalf of the Congress,
The military puts someone up for the award but does not make the award.
This moron, OLIVIA KATRANDJIAN, doesn’t even know that the traditional way to spell “Marine” as it pertains to a member of the US Marine Corps is with a capital “M”.
