The 'Honorary' award is an acknowledgement of the error made in 1974 when the 101st 'considered and rejected' the retroactive award to Vietnam combat vets. The lifers said we 'lost the war.' Now Big Army will not make a retroactive award. Only political action can correct the 1974 insult to Vietnam combat veterans. If you have any political connections in congress please contact me: Glamunyon@aol.com
