I posted this in politics as it will probably turn political but it shouldn't. I really would like to know why he is getting a civilian medal and not some kind of military one? His story is one of many that we are loosing all the time with their passing. He was clearly a military officer and it baffles me that he would get a civilian medal....He deserves more than we are giving him is what I am getting at I guess. :notworthy:
