0 did not salute the MOH winner. That was a breach of protocol.
EVERYONE is required to salute anyone wearing a MOH.
He also should have remained in front of Staff Sergeant Giunta while suspending the medal. What a dorked up presentation. Not to mention his comments afterwards.
About protocol I was not aware of the specifics, but Zero’s behavior and body language was off, as if he were left dazed by a sudden truth ray.
We know the usurper is rotten to the core but that’s his normal. Of course, even a usurper should manage to get this right but I think this time any errors weren’t out of disrespect, but rather he was “struck dumb” (okay more than usual) by the presence of the MOH recipient.
The young sergeant had “something” about him that Zero knew he could never obtain or touch, and it shorted out Hussein’s circuits.
