Is it just me, or is the Marine in this story a dirty ,rotten, self serving, medal hunter?

I personally don't think any off us have the right to judge this man, he made what he thought was the best descision for him at a very hard time in his life. I am also very offended about the "dirty ,rotten, self serving, medal hunter?" part. Does the word "PATRIOT" ring a bell.? YOU cannot say that you wouldn't have made the decision he did, because you didn't have too.


Are you married with children? How long have you been in the service? I had 8 years and have a wife and 2 kids. This guy made the wrong choice. I would never have held it against him to stay with his family for that situation. His choice doesn't make him a patriot. I can tell you from my experience that I bet 80% of his company has little to no respect for him now.

I am a veteran! I am Proud of it! I back our troops! I do not support this guy’s decision. Don't preach PATRIOTISM to me. This guy would have been a bigger patriot if he would have chose to stay with his critically ill child. That would have shown the world that our troops have a conscience. You tell me you could honestly leave a child that is dying, when you HAD a choice to stay? Get real! If you could, then you didn't deserve to be a parent!
