Innocent of mistreating a prisoner under their care. I believe that is one of the complaints. This should be easy to disprove. Seals don’t need medals, they know they are appreciated by the American people.
The question was a rhetorical one.
They are not guilty of anything, so they don't have to show they are 'innocent' of anything.
Listening to the accusations of the man who admitted murdering thousands of INNOCENT civilians is evil.
No, Seals don't NEED medals, the DESERVE them. And the medals are one way Americans show their appreciation for their sacrifice and courage.
