Medal of Honor

Although it is not as bad as when Abrams was in command, politics play a very large part of any award for valor. Some units as in Bob Howard's case will award a DSC pending the award of the MOH. Other units will not award anything pending
Again as in Bob's case his first nomination ended in a DSC. His second ended in a Silver Star due to a jeolious sergeant. The third one went through. Also, the write up will also play a part in what award is to be awarded. This will always happen when you got Politics involved in the military.
