Agree with you, Destro. Jessica doesn't remember what happened. Doesn't someone have to be able to tell what happened before we can start passing out medals? If someone else was a witness, why aren't we hearing what happened?

Delighted that she was rescued but don't think medals should be given out just because she survived.

Can you cite me the regulation that says "Before any award can be given, Destro needs to be informed"? It's necessary for you to know the exact details of why a soldier is given any award short of the CMH. The Army decided to award this soldier her medal. It's their decision and theirs alone.
