One more time it's the media using that four letter word to get attention. The DOD is looking at reviewing and up grading all valor awards for the past 15 years. The Navy and Marines have several on the classified list and they are not all SEALS. Navy times wanted to use that and the photo of the American sniper to turn heads and have people read article. As soon as the new SECDEV took over he ordered a review of all Valor awards not just the Secret ones. This is a good thing I just think they are over using that SEAL word. Marines have done just as much and their are other Sailors out there that have done some amazing things also. They just wanted to use the SEAL thing to grab head lines. The Army is doing the same thing but they will not use the word Ranger or Delta it will just say looking at upgrading some awards. I'm just tried of the play on words. Have worked down range with all SOF elements and they and support troops have done amazing things that some will never know and it's not just SEAL's.

Totally agree: Service or billet should matter not one iota. Base the award on the actions taken. Semper Fi shipmate!

MGySgt James Forward - Thank you Master Guns, You guy's have been in it to win it starting at camp Rhino AFG in which our guys built and fought beside you and defending it in early days that no one remembers. SEALS do their work but so other sailors and troops in this whole thing.. Out....
