Very informative video on the SSM! My father served in the Asiatic Pacific Campaign with the USAFFE during WW2 and received his SSM in addition to the BSM, his PUC w/1 OLC, APC Medal, Philippine PUC and his Philippine Liberation Ribbon w/2 Bronze Stars. Thanks for showing some examples.

My buddy went to army boot in the early 2010s. Said there was a guy in his mid 30s who was prior service going through boot again all the DS's were giving him a hard time for whatever reason. I guess he blew up on one of them and a lot of words were exchanged. DS later apologized once he found out the guy was a silver star recipient. Left him alone after that 😅
