I think we can all wish that we had peace and that we are not going to study war no more, but I would not hold your breathe waiting for that. In the meantime, given that Mr. Bone Spur tells us that he is a war hero, we can ask ourselves if this moron and traitor actually knows what a war hero is. I doubt it. For those of you who may not have given it much thought, I can recommend the citations of the Congressional Medal of Honor (CMOH) as a way of making this abstract concept somewhat real.
There are several rules about getting a CMOH and they include: (a) there have to be living witnesses of the event, (b) whatever the candidate did has to be beyond doing their job bravely and competently, (c) the commanding officer has to recommend you, (d) one of the congressmen from wherever our candidate hero is from has to sponsor it and (e) congress has to vote for it. The CMOH is not without controversy in its 164 year history, but its track record is pretty good.
So, for example, you do not get a CMOH for merely advancing against the enemy while being shot at. Everyone is expected to do that. However, you might get a CMOH if, while your unit is under fire, you single handedly take out an enemy machine gun nest while the rest of your platoon is (sensibly) sheltered for cover and praying. And then, having eliminated the machine gun in single combat if you do it two more times before they kill you, then you *might* get a CMOH.
Or to choose another example, if you are known to be a complete screwup until your first enemy mission whereupon the bomber you are on is set upon by waves of enemy fighters, the fuel tank explodes, and 5 of your crewmates are hit by enemy fire and are bleeding out on the floor of the bomber, and then, suddenly, demonstrating behavior no one would have believed you are capable of, you alternate between putting out the fire in the center of the airplane, shooting at enemy fighters and driving them away, tending to the wounded to stop the bleeding, and getting at least three of them into parachutes and out a hole in the fuselage to hopefully save their lives because the plane you are on is certainly going to explode and/or crash and kill everyone at any moment. And somehow the bomber survives and you land. And then when the brass comes to give you your medal for improbably saving the day, no one can find you because you are in the kitchen peeling potatoes as punishment for some other screwup for which you are well known. If you do that you might get a CMOH and plausibly be considered a "war hero".
Trust me, whatever DJT, the rapist and felon may be, he is certainly not a "war hero"
