Unless it's changed from when I was "in" ('66 - '68) a Navy Cross recipient should have a superfine ride for the rest of his career; that Marine will be worshipped....even a Bronze Star, which was disgustingly common in the Army, was a rarity back then.

You can rest assured that the Navy Cross is still a very rare award in the Marine Corps. When a Marine deserves the Medal of Honor but isn't killed in action, he gets the Navy Cross.

I wish he were. I need to get him to speak to our Kiwanis group.

The highest honor a person can receive is the title, United States Marine.

"There's something special about being awarded this by your peers, because it means they believe in you," Montoya says. "But what I did was an action of love. This award is for all the Marines that came before me and those that will come after me." Semper Fi Devil Dog!

Sgt. Scott C. Montoya, 35, a reservist and scout-sniper with 2nd Battalion, 23rd Marine Regiment, received the Marine Corps' second-highest award for valor, the Navy Cross, from Lt. Gen. Dennis McCarthy, who commands Marine Forces Reserve, during a short ceremony in the courtyard at the Marine Corps Reserve Center, Encino, California. The Orange County sheriff's deputy received the award in front of 200 friends, family members and several officials, including his boss, Sheriff Michael Corona.
