Isn’t this country great or what! As a Viet Nam Veteran, I can now go on-line an order me a “medal of choice” and add to my five “earned” medals received for my service in ‘Nam. Let’s see, a Silver Cross with 5 oak leaf clusters would be nice. Couple of bronze stars, two purple hearts, etc., would add nicely to my collection. And I can now tell people I won those awards and display them on my lapel if I want to! Wearing a Medal of Honor around my neck might be a stretch. (sarcasm intended)
I know this is a freedom of speech issue, but I sure hope the lawmakers have enough sense to “tweak” the law just a tad.
Where’s the common sense?
