1. Walt Starr and a few others
did a lot of research into Bush's medals. One was for everyone that was in his squadron (?)

There's a bunch of stuff in the archives.

5. I'm not sure
if these are even the same medals?

But supposedly Bush had 2 medals and that both of them were legitimate. However, I serious doubt that he had anything as fancy as that Silver Superstar. (Is that even real?)

The top one, is a road guard ribbon and the bottom one, is for service above and beyond the call of duty, in the latrine...

11. My dad was in the army and he got a medal
Why? Well, he was honorably discharged. At least Dad did his duty (in cold war Germany) and didn't go AWOL.
