One thing is for sure. The Marines hate giving medals out, I mean you could capture Bin Laden, Save 100kids and Disable a nuke(all in one hour) and they would be like "Bronze Star"

But hey, it means something when you recieve one of those.

so far i have very few medals as my service is only at its beginning stage. I have a ribbon for bosnia, a couple of marsmanship things (id rather be allowed to use a sniper rifle) and a good conduct medal. im keeping my fingers crossed for that victoria cross one day

When did you serve in Bosnia?
I was there in 99.
Please introduce yourself in the Welcoming center...
(we are a bit pushy on that one.. )

i was actually in bosnia just last year, we also have word we may be going to Aphganistan if the Canadian government decides to increase our troop support there. I've only been soldiering for about hmmm. almost 4 years so i dont exactly have a lot of experience under my belt like some of you boys, plus for my first year i was in a reserve unit.
