How does a officer in the rear with the gear win a Bronze Star? A Bronze
Star is a badge of courage and can not nor should not be given to supply
clerk Desk Jockeys.

I knew that at some time in the future this dark secret would come out. A
Bronze Star is intended to be given to people who show courage under fire.
Many officers were given the Bronze Star for nothing more than showing up
in country. Any officer that does not have a Combat Infantry Badge or 
documented combat experience and uses it for political advantage is at
least disingenuous. 

Gray Davis has neither a CIB or  documented combat experience. His
inference of being a combat hero is wrong and insults the memory of 58,000
brothers and sisters who died in the Vietnam conflict.


I am not calling Gray Davis a phony, but if the shoe fits he must wear it.
