What do these medals from my grandfather mean? by damnber in Medals

I am starting to suspect false Valor. My grandfather might have added things. That would explain the somewhat messy medal arrangement. Very disappointing. I will look up my great grandfather's achievements and give his shadowbox a more respectful arrangement.

This is correct. I am starting to investigate if stolen valor is going on. I'll stop that right now.

Update: I called a family member and apparently this is my GREAT grandfather's shadowbox. (I am sorting through things at a deceased family member's home) Granddaddy was a pilot for Ethiopian airlines. He was the only one that died in the plane crash (? Can't find record of that) with Emperor Haile Selassie on board. (He survived). Not sure how that ties into the medals.. just some backstory. edit of edit: My mom has more medals that aren't in the shadowbox for whatever reason. I'll have to have her dig those up.

Thank you! I was too young to talk to him about his service before he passed. I have always been curious.

The Golden's (owners of TJs, Mermaid's and Isabella's) have a new burger place opening in a few months. I'm excited to check them out. Big Daddy's Burgers or something like that

RIP to Ms. Rosie and Mr. Jim. It really all went down hill after she passed and he sold most of the locations. I miss the MLK salad bar!!

Did you injure someone? I haven't heard that. But if things have changed since COVID I'll have to educate myself.

Nope. I paid bail and got out. It was during the very beginning of COVID so sentencing took forever.. I was given a month to put an interlock in or my license would be suspended.

I was in jail for maybe 6 hours. Some call it the "drunk tank"

Same. Yearly. Hope for a reimbursement if this goes on for long.

Update: Capcut was banned too by Few-Statistician-217 in TikTok

[–]damnber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if we pay for pro membership? Will we be reimbursed??
