Read the article! It says he was under the impression it was solely awarded for his actions that day picking up the guys out of the water (while Kerry had run away). He never knew Kerry had written up the extra stuff about enemy fire (5000 yards - that's 2-1/2 miles!). He says if he'd known the award was issued fraudulently - as he now believes it was given the LIEs incorporated by John Kerry, then he no longer wants it!
