I note that his “fruit salad” is missing a vital ingredient: the U.S. Army Good Conduct Medal. So what if he is an officer and a gentleman, and good conduct is assumed? /s/

Wow. What a resume. General Petraeus is a real American hero.

I'll wager there isn't a Kommie in all of Daily Kosland that has a CAB (used to be a CIB).

Tells you something about the left, doesn't it.

Just, . . . wow. Most soldiers would be honored (and fortunate) to have just one of those.

“* Army Achievement Medal”

Found it. Bush’s failure in Iraq could not produce and achievement medal. Therefore it has to be bogus. /sarcasm

Um...if a retired Army doofus like me is authorized to wear quite a few of those very same medals, those Kos Kids need to investigate me, LOL! Bring it on! :)

My take? They’re all a bunch of military-bashing “PX Heroes” who don’t appreciate what men like General Petraeus really mean to this country. (I don’t know him personally, though my best friend is a retired Major and she taught with him at military academies in the past. She thinks the sun rises and sets on him and that’s good enough for me.)

Sadly, none of the Kos Kids are intelligent enough to read even the SIMPLEST of military regulations. In their defense, military regulations are usually quite thick. They DO have a lot of numbers and big words in them. And no pictures. *SMIRK*

fyi, "wikipedia" is NOT an ACCEPTABLE source (absent other INDEPENDENT proof) on ANY subject that is more important than whether some "hollywierd trollop" wears underpants, or more likely does NOT.
