Since the Army is the oldest of the services. When they bring your body back to Dover when your killed in action the Army body is brought out first before those of other services.

As an Army vet, I say what thousands of Army vets said before me. FTA

Army has been awarded the largest number of the Medal of Honor.

Awards by military branch

Army 2458
Navy 749
Marine 300
Air Force 19
Coast Guard 1
Total 3527



Note that the number of Air Force recipients does not count recipients from its pre-19 September 1947 Army-related predecessor organizations.

It's best not to quote stupid people.

Quote smart people like the guy who wrote this.
