No war to see here, please move along. Hey you over there with a full mag, here's your medal, thanks for not playing too hard today.

Or is it just the last hope of awarding troops of anything since ROE are so restrictive on engaging, making this kind of like the King of Playing Chicken award?

Either way, I never thought I'd see it.

Doesn't surprise me at all. I'll bet most will be awarded posthumously when it comes to pass.

It probably won't be long before the peace symbol will be a part of the uniform.

ROFLMMFAO!!! I seriously thought it was a joke until I saw it was a canday assed Englishman that suggested it. WAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA, oh MAN!
I can see it now:
Ribbon, blue overall, white 1/16" stripe offset left and right with 1/64" silver centered. Device made of chrome centered, appears to be a vagina covered with wringing hands

Along with the Posthumous Purple Heart they will award the Chicken Heart.
