I'd be proud to receive the Purple Heart because it means I didn't die. Of course, I'd rather just stay behind my computer screen for the rest of my days.

I know a lot of soldiers during the Vietnam War didn't want it because they knew so many of their brethren who'd been injured far worse but hadn't been seen by a passing major or something.Kaharz wrote: Some who were wounded in combat even tried to avoid being awarded the purple heart* because they considered it the "You fucked up medal."
Continual disappointment is the spice of life.
