Agreed Stevin. As you and members of our forum know, I already had some reservations regarding the methodology behind the push for the medal. I still believe that a few people involved in this had ulterior motives such as their own claim to fame and seeing THEIR name in lights and I still think that that some made claims in his name that simply weren't true.
As I already stated here, I have nothing but respect for the major and if he does receive the medal, I will be more than happy for him.
If anyone hasn't read my feelings on this matter, you can catch the thread below:
