The initial decision not to award any Purple Hearts under the 0bama administration for the Ft. Hood terror attack was overturned.
Sgt. Berry dislocated a shoulder and was turned down and now the Army has to give a reason he was turned down or award the Purple Heart.
Thank you for your response,I didn’t read this completely.Good to know that Sgt Berry will get some recognition.
Yeah, the Army is pretty clear on the issue.
1. Jump off a truck in a combat zone and break your leg - no Purple Heart.
2. Jump off the same truck while under fire and break your leg - you get a Purple Heart.
A terrorist shooting through your door and you dive over a desk and dislocate your shoulder and need medical attention? Falls under # 2.
