btw what do you think a lawyer does on a seal team SUPPORT

HINT HE DOES NOT CARRY A GUN

OR GO ON RAIDS

LIKE MOSTLY DESK JOB WRITING MEMO'S
and paying or saying not to pay for collateral damage

get a clue to your hero worship

''Though DeSantis did have a military career as an officer in the U.S. Navy, he was not a Navy SEAL during his time of service.

However, he did serve as close legal counsel to a Navy SEAL commander while deployed to Iraq in 2007 and 2008.

In addition, DeSantis provided mission support and legal monitoring within his jurisdiction during that time.''

his bronze star was not earned in the war or anything dangerous it was political BS for being a lawdog

Not that any of this has to do with being a hero, but if he was in Iraq, as a service-member, he would have carried a gun.

Officers carry a 9mm hand gun, and enlisted carry the M4 rifle. Neither one makes you a hero.

You don't have to kill someone to be a hero. While he likely spent his time in a converted office, he was still deployed, spent time away from family in the service of country, living in a small shipping container or barracks.

Bronze Star:

"The Bronze Star Medal is a United States Armed Forces decoration awarded to members of the United States Armed Forces for either heroic achievement, heroic service, meritorious achievement, or meritorious service in a combat zone."


"Meritorious Achievement" and "Meritorious Service" are two things that are generally not associated with shooting anything. It can literally be that you filled out the most number of government forms than any other person that day. It's generally reserved for people who have done a great thing, EVEN if that great thing is something that's largely administrative. It can be that he successfully worked a case as a JAG, or whatever it is. You'd have to see the citation to know what it was awarded for.

But the Bronze Star does NOT automatically mean that he was in combat.

Well, I can't disagree with that logic... but I can't say if the medal was always given to just those who unfortunately ended up in battle, or if it was also given to desk jockeys. That said... he was there, and I don't really ever see him talk about it. Matter of fact, I didn't even know about his service until one of my Democrat friends e-mailed me about it to complain... who himself had never served in any capacity.

BTW aside from not wanting to serve for the crook nixon

the wounded vets at the local VA WERE VERY ANTI-WAR
said it was a no win mess to be avoided at all costs

WHY WAS YOUNG TEEN ME AT A VA HOSPITAL ?

THE WORLDS BIGGEST SWIMMING POOL 100 METERS BY 50 NOT FEET NOT YARDS METERS
WAS AT THE OLD HOTEL CONVERTED TO THE VA
and a buddys mom ran it as the head volunteer

so we saw vets early and often many horribly hurt
they were 9 out of 10 anti-war
guess seeing the elephant will do that !
