What a load of personal nonsense, we Americans and American vets will talk about our combat losses and dead heroes, and you sounding like some foreigner attacking the Americans for doing that and labeling them “Arabs”, is really silly.

“Our Commanding Officer, Captain William Loren McGonagle, received the Congressional Medal of Honor

Our Executive Officer, Lieutenant Commander Philip McCutcheon Armstrong, received the Navy Cross posthumously

Several men received the Silver Star Medal, some posthumously

Several men received the Bronze Star Medal, some posthumously

205 men received the Purple Heart Medal, 34 posthumously

All crewmen received the Combat Action Ribbon

All crewmen share the Presidential Unit Citation”

"What a load of personal nonsense, we Americans and American vets will talk about our combat losses and dead heroes,..."

I posted some links above to the facts on the topic, and you've posted only the fallacious appeals to emotional responses followed by he-said-she-said arguments. You've replied only with personal nonsense and are implying that you're an American "vet." Are you or not?
