Purple Hearts
 

53 Purple Hearts were awarded to US Soldiers in the "La' Belle" Disco
Bombing in Berlin Germany in April 1986.

None were hit with peices of the actual bomb....Most were injured from
broken glass.....from Beer Steins and Pils glasses.

Heres the facts folks...I knew a lot of these guys.....So tell me should
they have the PH for these wounds?

By the way? Ronald Reagan and then VP George Bush sr demanded the Purple
hearts to be awarded!


In other words.....If you dont like Kerry's Purple Heart


Blow it out your ass!

I presume the glass wouldn't have been broken and flying if an enemy
hadn't bombed the facility they were in.

If this is the case, yes, they deserved them.

Why is it leftists can't seem to understand Purple Hearts are only
supposed to be given for injuries resulting from an enemy attack?

I guess all those allies bombed/strafed to death by the US Air Force
wouldn't qualify then.
