I think this is too serious to joke about. A lot of men died for the purple hearts, and not just in Vietnam.

I agree 100%. This is well-intentioned, to be sure, but it gives the issue an air of frivolity that is entirely inappropriate. I joke about my own PH (I was sitting on my ass at the time, and WHAP!) but (A.) it is mine to joke about and (B.) its authenticity is not in doubt (it took a lot more than a band-aid to treat it).
