Same shit, different war - my dad got the award for soldier of the quarter while sitting on his ass smoking a cigarette in a half track while on sentry duty before he did the officer thing.
[he had spotted someone walking around and challenged them for the password, it turned out to be a general who was trying to see how security was going. All the other guys passed him on seeing the uniform, dad was the only one who asked for the password, while sitting there smoking. He used the excuse that he was 'in concealment to better surprise people' though I am not certain how he explained the cigarette But then again a guy with a Silver Star gets a lot of leeway in things.]
NICE!!
Please thank your father --and any other members of your family who have served!!-- for his service.
