JFK was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal, their version of the Soldier’s Medal, a non-combat award for bravery, as my friend got on one of our exercises.

Thanks for the info. His old man did try and push for the MOH but Kennedy had screwed up on the patrol that night and if it went to a Naval Inquiry Board it would have proved embarrassing for Kennedy's political future. In effect the Navy told Joe Kennedy to zip it and back off.
