[Vhfcn-l] Wikipedia Air Medal Criteria

[Don Armstrong]

  As was often said "The company clerk is the most powerful person in 
the US military."  If they like you they can do all sorts of write-ups 
for just about anything. On the other hand if they are lazy or just hate 
you in particular you will be lucky to have been recorded to have been 
at that duty station.

  I'm reminded of a company clerk from Nha Trang that was in one of my 
PTSD groups. His claim for PTSD was all of the awards and actions he was 
in. He even had a CIB having never been out in the field because he said 
that "technically" since Nha Trang had attacks going in on and around 
the base during the 68 TET offensive for over 30 days he qualified so he 
did the write up and got the CIB.  We ran his ass out of the PTSD group 
and the Doctor running the group wrote up why he got kicked out.
