WASHINGTON, D.C. — Congressman John P. Murtha, Chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense, was presented this week with the Department of the Navy’s Distinguished Public Service Award. The award, granted by the Secretary of the Navy, is the highest form of public service recognition bestowed by the Department of the Navy for a non-employee. It consists of a gold medal, miniature medal, lapel bar, rosette, and a certificate signed by the Secretary.
Ya notice no particular recognition was given the Marine Corps.

Be happy you are on that side of the ridge.....
Blatant sucking-up because of his position on the Appropriations Committee (Thumbs down DON)....only someone with a wildly distorted ego (narcissistic) would accept such an award without merit....I'm sure Mad(m)ame Pelosi will be beating on someone's door for hers very soon. It makes all previous recipients cheap.
