Why not give it a place of Honor on your book shelf - and for your kids/grandkids to read - help the story from being buried in the dust of time again?

Some 60 years late, a hand-full of MOST deserving soldiers are getting what should have been theirs decades ago - this man was, fortunately, still alive to see it - at 94!

I could tell you many stories of actions by our soldiers in Afghanistan that are deliberately being ignored for rightful medals and/or given medals below the level deserved - because the powers that be don't want that much attention brought to the level of fighting...and who despise our military as well.

these 'powers' are, largely, wimps who never served a day - and if they did, would have messed themselves.
