I'm sure it has more to do with the WWII and Korean War vets dying out and some Vietnam guys as well. Those were large conflicts with large conscripted armies.



Of course that made the numbers rise, but many of these guys were Vietnam vets.

My point is unless you put on the uniform who the frick are you as a civilian to question a service members record when it comes to deployments and and decs they have earned.

I don't think it's wrong to question something like this if it is suspected that it is politically motivated. I don't think other medal recipients would appreciate someone getting the same recognition if they didn't truly earn it.
