Kinda depressing for the korean vets and even viet guys how they never get to have their moment in the spotlight. The last goyim uprising really is just THE war, it’s like a religious rite to find an excuse to go back and revisit it every year.
As a kid I’d see them wheel out near-corpses to give them insane promotions to lofty heights, just for the photo opp. and a few attaboys for the units today…..but now they’re straight up canonizing dead guys. And not even recent dead, the guy died in 2009 so it’s not even an awkward matter of timing the paperwork.
Just seems weird to go through all of this, to award his descendants so far removed for something they never saw, and probably didn’t even know about other than “dad was a pilot in the navy one time”.
It’s all just weird to me, beyond politics, beyond fluff pieces for the press corps, there’s a religious component here
