I is hard to believe the jealousy and rage of people like this guy who probably never served a day in uniform. Thank you for letting others know. Having served nearly 40 years in the Army and Navy, with 7 1/2 years of my Navy service assigned to the Fleet Marine Force, I can spot fakes. Sincerely, Steve Dundas
I profess embarrassed ignorance on this. The story told by his uniform brings a lump to my throat, dampness to my eyes and pride to my heart. Thank you for educating me.
Thank you for all that information! I never doubted his record of service for a second but it’s really fascinating to learn the significance of each symbol on the uniform!
My FIL served as a Forward Artillery Observer in WWII, which I'm sure you know often includes being behind enemy lines. We have all his service honors proudly displayed along with the flag given to my MIL from his funeral. He would be appalled if he were alive today - not just for the Orange Shitgibbon, but for the insults & degradation heaped on fine men like Gen. Milley. Thank you for educating your readers on the meanings of Gen. Milley's most outstanding awards and his long record of service.
Knowledge like this is fuel to help keep us going for the next 4 years. Thank you, Charlotte for your service in the Army and your service now to keep speaking the truth.
Thank you, Charlotte, for the explanation of the military honors earned by this courageous soldier. I knew that all of the “fruit salad” meant things he had accomplished, but I didn’t know what each one meant. My ex husband was in the National Guard.
Thank you for setting the record straight, even if MAGAts don't care about the truth.

Thank you for this, Charlotte. Fascinating.
And yet, active military and veterans voted for Trump by wide margins, so it works for them to denigrate, degrade, and mock the military.

Tried to share on FB. Would not post. Same thing happened with Joyce White Vance's essay.

And now you know.
Thank you for explaining all of this.
How can we counter these floods of disinformation that the MAGA and unfortunately, way too many other people are constantly consuming?
They just lie and lie and lie, on and on, and when they are called on it, shamelessly deny they are lying, then continue to lie and lie and lie.
