in modern times, you just buy the medals and the MSM tells people you are better than they are. USA just pardoned Blackwater *TERRORISTS* and are trying to kill the man who exposed the terrorists.

@ragnar97 3 жыл бұрын

@@donHooligan Not from the US or any english speaking country...My father used the word "medal" as a stand-in for any sort of reward. Why do people have to bring politics into everything? Do you think I'm defending giving medals to war criminals? If not, why bring it up? Jesus Christ. The sheer fact I said "would roughly translate" should hint you at the fact I'm not an english native so what's your point? Things are unfair in the US? ok, great, doesn't mean what my father or Sam Elliot said is wrong. If you go above what's expected of you you'll usually get rewarded.
