Here is a link to the Wikipedia article on General Rogers with details of how he received the MOH (Medal of Honor, NOT "Congressional Medal of Honor&quot .
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Calvin_Rogers

I was in Vietnam at the same time as an artillery forward observer in the same area as the action for which Rogers received the MOH. We were in deep shit day in and day out and his battalion was in even deeper shit.

And now we have an alcoholic, skirt-chasing DUI hire piece of shit Pete Hogsbreath a National Guard major as Secretary of Defense and a draft dodging lying, demented human turd as president and co-president. And for this I served 30 years in the Army and got my ass shot three times. Fuck them all.
