28. I saw it first hand
I have to agree with everyone. After Operation Iraqi Freedom, all the officers and Senior NCOs were put in for a Bronze Star. None of our lower enlisted got anything higher than ARCOM. It's a shame. I think some of those soldiers deserved it since they were wounded and participated in more missions than some Senior NCOs (one of them) and officers (two of them) who did nothing and sometimes their whole platoon didn't even go on a mission because our Commander didn't think they could handle it.

Our Commander got a Silver Star and deserved it. He was amazing in every situation.
