I heard about an incident similar to the one your dad described, while I was in Korea. I don't know where it occurred, or what the circumstances were. If it happened, it would have been written up somewhere.Justy remember, your dad wanted to be held in respect by his children. Give him a break.

That's correct, three digits. I was in Plt 280 MCRD. Four PH's? Be interested to learn what units he was with.

Truly understand how you feel bubba. Whenever someone says they were with the CIA, recon, special forces, SEALS, and can't figure why the compass keeps swinging or say he'll have to kill you, probably POSER. I was at VA the other day and this young man (Gulf War) was telling us how he was awarded the PH but couldn't wear it. The "soldier" suffered an in-CONUS leg injury just before his unit deployed. His CO felt he "earned" PH since his unit went into combat. What a crock of poop.

Don't know about this guy so I assume he is talking about PI. In San Diego in May '69 there were 4 digit platoons, I was 1082.
But still not as bad as the guy I saw who posted he was in boot camp in Pendleton and left because he did like it, actually packed his things and left. But then he says he thought better of it and went back to finish basic. Now that is a poser.
