Old news, give it up.
This is a losing battle, save your energy.

The signature of Sec Lehman appears on the battle valor decoration, not on the award itself. It is an update - a records clarification - which happens all the time. There is nothing odd, or inappropriate in this case.

Old news

Anything 2 hours old is old news. That's beside the point. I asked some questions about this. Do you know the answers?

Sorry to disagree. The only reasonable explanation for a signed citation by Lehman is that Kerry was seeking replacment medals. What records clarification are you referring to? The bronze star citations signed by Zumwalt and Lehman are exactly the same. The Silver Star citations signed by Hyland and Lehman are exactly the same except for the last line, which is just a slight change in the boilerplate language.

Could you provide a link to the record clarification?

If this is all it is, there is no sense looking into it.

But, others disagree with you on this...
