I'm related by blood to every branch except the Navy, I try to avoid inter-service rivalry but with both parents Marines I lean green. Nobody did anything that got a cool medal, my family seems to have a genetic pre-disposition to being support personel.

I don't understand how anybody with a clean conscious can look at someone that still can't walk and say they don't deserve recognition.

Not related, but I've got friends from all branches. They're all good people, for the most part. I don't understand how anybody with a clean conscious can look at someone that still can't walk and say they don't deserve recognition.

The only exception I might find is if someone shot themself in the foot. That is obviously not the case here!
