Wow...I've seen you mention the Purple Heart before but I had no clue you also were awarded that DFC.
Well, getting the DFC (2) and Bronze Stars (2), one each with V was nowhere near as exciting as the PH.
I have no doubts.
My flak jacket kept me from a Purple Heart and that was fine…but it was for sure a more ‘exciting’ moment than when I first met the criteria for a CAR, which was more boring than anything else.
