Heheh, I'm sure your right Bob.

We never saw awards. I got a Top Gun award one year in Germany. It was an 8x10 wood plaque with a 1" plastic medallion of a Tank on the top of it. The rest of the plaque, where the brass plate should have gone, was completly blank. The cheap bastards didn't even get the thing personalized. Must of cost them all of about $2.00. I had it hangin on the wall in the barracks until the heat made the glue holding the medallion on, melt and the medallion fell off.... Heheh, gotta love it.

Anyway, I was real glad we didn't get those Article 15's !
