I haven't seen that many stars since I accidentally sat on my b***s.
And who the frig polishes those medals.
I talked to General Amos for two minutes and he intimidated the hell out of me...
Great photo.
The medals are glaring. Having more of an Air Force background, I have never seen anything like those medals.
I think the one at the top left, from the ribbon, would be a Navy Cross. Next up for that spot would be a Congressional Medal of Honor but he doesn't have that. I have seen very few Navy Crosses, but I think that they are issued in "subdued bronze" like the Distinguished Service Cross and the Air Force Cross.
Who polished them? Some E3.
He definitely has some serious "bling" going on... 😉
Carl - that's a cheap shot.
I suspect he earned every medal there and I'd be willing to bet he takes care of them himself. I really doubt a Marine would have an E3 polish his medals.
Not at all
Not a shot of any kind. Don't read into my post what is not there.
And what is this "suspect" about earning the medals? I have no doubt he earned them all.
Some of us in a different branch would have been gigged for polishing medals like that. To each his own.
