Cop out answer.
You know wrong is wrong you aren't a child.
Just have the guts to say so. You should probably read post 1288 so you know the story.

As I said earlier, people show false modesty to have more praise heaped on them. Very unbecoming. If you were truly modest, you'd take the award, thank everyone and be done with it. Instead you say (basically) "hey everyone, I got a medal, but to show how truly better I am than everyone else, I don't accept it and it's too bad others don't have the convictions of principle I do". Give me a break with your false modesty.

No false modesty.
People with a sense of honor know that when a list comes out giving awards by rank with no regard to actions it is wrong.
I could have hidden at every enemy engagement like a coward and gotten the same award.
You have no idea what you are talking about.
BTW I expect praise from no one, especially you.

Then why are you telling everyone how much more honorable you are than others?

I never said I got a bronze star.
I said people who did. My leaders who taught me about honor the old fashioned way, by example.
Apparently you never had an honorable example.
"the extreme case" happened, I was there, I saw my leaders react to it and was taught that it was wrong and they showed me by example. I would do the same thing if it happened to me because it was right.

All part of the wonderfulness of you and your "leaders" that no one else posesses, eh?
