Something that irritates me. We usually pause before the new graves of soldiers killed on active duty. Most of the headstones have "KIA" on them but only a couple have "purple heart".

I'd love to drag Kerry by the neck over there and show him how much he disgraced real heros.

If you're looking at the VA provided head stones that is probably because the family doesn't fully understand their elections. I'm not sure whether the Purple Heart is an option or not but anyone killed in action does receive the Purple Heart.

He is an excellent example of how the Air Force has suffered from the loss of warrant officers. It appears the NCO's aren't doing a very good job. I'd have that straightened out in about 90 seconds.
