[QUOTE="SMS, post: 2834201, member: 42"] Boatz. Slow your roll, walk your sh&t back, and read what I posted. I've written BS citations for others and been recommended for at least 2. I am among a relative few who have been awarded my service's Combat Action Medal (ground [I]not[/I] air). The BS is, at it's core, a [I]service[/I] award that does have an optional valorous component. It's biggest qualifier is that the period of service must be during a qualifying period of combat operations, and in proximity to the combat zone. There is no requirement for the individual to be [I]in[/I] combat. That doesn't mean everyone who earned one wasn't in combat. It's just a fact that does not diminish your service. Thank you for it. We were addressing the fact that there is a public misconception that the BS is [I]strictly[/I] a valorous award akin to the Silver Star. If you take offense to that [I]fact[/I], it's on you not me.
