bogus medals
Chicago Tribune investigation reveals specific men with small dicks
The Tribune found well over 100 men who have publicly but bogusly claimed military medals for bravery. The Trib looked mainly at self-submitted bios in the Who's Who in America series and in newspaper obituaries, and then got those men's military records via the Freedom of Information Act. Then, the Trib called up a lot of them for comments. Responses ranged from full-denial mode, to opening a new round of B.S., to a few soulful admissions. (Also possibility: A few who never got such medals have actually convinced themselves they did.) Chicago Tribune

As I sit here reading this, holding my 'Purple Heart' against my chest, I am filled with a feeling of disgust.

Imagine my confusion when this story had nothing to do with pecker size at all...
Idiots... why lie about something like that?

Well, I've got 1 (one) medal just because I joined the Navy during a time of conflict! Whoopee! That and $10 will get you a cup of swill at Starbucks.
