The Bronze has always been an ambiguous thing because it's perceived by the public as an award for valor whether its got the "V" or not. I wish they'd find another way of honoring administrative performance.

I think Sgt Meyer deserves all the salutes he gets.

Audie Murphy and a number of others found out that living with the MOH is sometimes harder than having died for it.

Well, looks like Dakota is officially part of the Palin clan now. Wish them the best.

You gotta admit, funny as hell that Bristol named their daughter, "Sailor". I am sure most all Marines are pretty excited to find out they have a child named Sailor. LMAO.

Anyway, best to them. Sounds like they are getting their lives in order.

Marines do tend to deploy a lot, and there is an old tradition of naming kids after their fathers.

She should have named it Target. I think everyone had a shot at it. But seriously, I'd do her and her mom.

Congrats, Dakota

One of them is his. He should've blown that shit on her chest. With that said, I'd rather marry into the Manson Family than the Palin Family. Good luck Marine, you're gonna need it.

But seriously - she's hot and he has a kid with her.

As long as he keeps the rest of the family at arm's length this could work for him.
