Fake Stars: yes, they're wrong
Author Max Boot has some curious notions about many things. Military honour, for instance, viz the Tillman cover-up. So why does it take civvies like Josh Foust or Tom Ricks to point this out?
Note to Boot: in my experience soldiers don't generally appreciate fake medals. They'd probably appreciate even less giving out medals for the giving of fake medals.
