Typo


From an earlier thread:
A Purple Heart is a very sacred medal. It should only be given to someone who was seriously wounded or killed.
I refused one 45 years ago because my injury in a firefight by an AK47 round was slight and only needed treating with iodine and a bandaid.

When Jean Carree was in Vietnam (did you know that factoid?) he got a Purple Heart for rice butt.
