DSC's are NOT awarded on an honorary basis - ever. Now, regarding the Legion of Merit award so prominently displayed, I have some problems with it as well: why is there a 'star' on it? Or a "V" device? Those devices don't apply to the LoM. And speaking of stars, what's with those four stars on Chesty's Navy Cross? If he received the NC multiple times, the multiple awards would be represented by an Oak Leaf Cluster. Same/Same for the Air Medal.

BOTTOM LINE: I think that we have been suckered by this dg0223 character. The entire rack now appears phony.
