You humiliated yourself on the topic of the Purple Heart....

You ran from the question about Pete's Bronze Star..

Pete was flown to a protected airfield and driven to his billet. 

Once there he spent much of his time passing out candy to the locals and passing out.
 

 

You don't get a CIB, idiot, unless you were in the infantry or Special Forces, and were in combat getting shot at and shooting back.

STFU!  ****, YOU are HUMILIATING yourself.
