The marines that were there, said Sgt. Rafael Peralta, who had a severe head wound, pulled a grenade to his body, which kept the rest of his squad from dying.
Leon Panetta, and pencil pushers decided the forensic evidence indicated the head wound was so severe, he was dead and couldn't have pulled the grenade to his body.
So, no Medal Of Honor for Peralta.
Personally, I think they should take Panetta, his pencil pushers, grease their butts and drop them into rural Iraq. First one out with proof they weren't raped anally gets to lick the floors of the Marine barracks of their choice.
That, and the best way to end the fiscal cliffhanger: reduce their salary and medical insurance. If they're so big on being representatives of their fellow Americans, then LIVE like one!
