Okay; in that light, I'll buy it. I must be oversensitive after all the exposed 'heroes' who have fraudulently claimed the MoH, DSC, Silver Star, etc. I wear a pretty large 'fruit salad' - but I've never been IN combat; i.e. never been shot at on purpose - I was just sent to places where the ribbons were awarded. So I wear all the stuff I rate - but I'm still self-conscious about it. So again - wear what feels right to you, and much respect to your family for their service.
