True, but only one of Ike's medals was combat-service related and that was for service along the Mexican Border during the Pancho Villa raid (with Patton.) Even his WW1 Victory medal was because he was in uniform in WW1 training Tankers... Patton took the tanks overseas. Ike stayed behind at Ft. Meade (before it was an NSA facility!)

The rest were well-earned. Eisenhower was a fantastic organizer and leader and earned the medals and foreign awards for leading the US and allies to victory with relatively few American, French, Pole, Canadian and Brit casualties in Europe. Ike was a tremendous staff officer, diplomat, etc. He had a tremendous record.

But 5 stars on his shoulders trumped a lot of fruit salad.

Here is his portrait that hangs at West Point. The Class the Stars Fell On.

Ike chose to wear the three ribbons he was most proud of. I think they are the DSM, the WWII Service Medal and the Victory in Europe Medal. But it probably varied by timefreme and photo.

There have been 'discussions' about the number of awards given in modern times. But as long its earned... it's earned.

I was at a gathering in the UK a bit over a year ago. They wear their actual medals on their class A's in a straight line. Not in rows. It was interesting to see some officers and senior NCO's with ribbon bars protruding past their bicep. And earning combat medals in the UK is a much more 'involved' process than in the US. Mentioned in Dispatches is still the main form of recognition in many regiments.

Cheers,

Now Patton on the other hand...

But he only had 4 stars... and it's that little 5th one that makes all the difference!

Look at Omar Bradley sometime... The GI General. Another one who ascended to 5 stars and yet who was hard to distinguish from a private when in the field...

If you wanted to fake an illness to get into sick bay, you could eat a couple of pieces of cordite and it would turn your skin grey and throw your heart rhythm into wierd territory.
