My dad suffered all his life from wounds he recieved during WW2, and he got 2 purple hearts. The way these cretins obtained their awards is beginning to diminish the significance of the honor. I say make him prove it!
A May 12, 2002, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette article reported that "Marine Corps casualty records show that Murtha was injured in 'hostile' actions near Danang, Vietnam, on March 22, 1967 and May 7, 1967. In the first incident, his right cheek was lacerated, and in the second he was lacerated above his left eye. Neither injury required evacuation."
