"I am more than a little curious about the circumstances behind a JAG lawyer like DeSantis being awarded a Bronze Star in Iraq."

I hadn't known he got a Bronze Star. My brother was an Army infantry grunt in Vietnam '66-'67, was fired on more times by his fellow soldiers than the enemy, and he got the basic medals for the war and his service there.

We know Kerry got his medals and Purple Hearts because he wrote the after-action reports, so he could recommend himself for them. It would be interesting to know how RDS squeezed a Bronze Star out.

Just did a search and he got the Bronze Star for being a lawyer/prosecutor in a War Zone. Just as we suspected, it was for bullshit.

"It was during this deployment that DeSantis earned his Bronze Star for his “meritorious service and dedication to duty.” His courageous efforts helped ensure the freedom of those serving abroad, while protecting the rights of those who had been accused of crimes within the military justice system."

How did DeSantis Get a Bronze Star?"

I threw-up a little in my throat posting this.
