I appreciate the sentiment, but the ignorance of the author in regards to military rank, titles, awards, and decorations is disappointing and disturbing to me.
You would think that they could have found at least one writer with enough military knowledge to get things right. They do have references for that sort of thing.
That probably explains a lot about the bias of the media. 
I hope Calderone's cellmate likes posers. Don't drop the soap!

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
