Officers do not get good conduct awards unless awarded as enlisted first.

Officers are supposed to se tthe example of good conduct and is demanded all the time. It's jsut like in the Army with us not wearing our marksmanship badges. We are supposed to be "experts" and who do you expect to lead soldiers if you are not?

Paul Foster fits every damn one of those except the Flying Cross. He was a sub commander. Damn, this is a toughy and I'm not having any luck checking through Marines either.

I hate you, Norm.
