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.

"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."
