To the men who have served - I am wondering - what is "normal" for such things?

How is it - where YOU live?

Is this normal?


I live in Canada, it always has been this way as far as I know.

And BTW, I would rather see taxpayer money spent on honouring someone for his/her protection of people of our country, than have it spent on any idiot politician that never served to protect me or anyone else, other than himself/herself and their own of course.

Dang man, these are people who risk their lives everyday for us and ours, they didn't have to do it, but they did, let them have their honour, don't steal it away because of the almighty buck. Even this post is stealing away a part of the honour this Officer deserves frown
