    I know this is a 2 minutes of hate thread, but Richard Dean Anderson got the same for his work on the TV show Stargate SG-1, which I thought was pretty cool.

    I’m not Amercian, or Canadian, so I don’t really understand the feelings towards military, but if I was an actor and they gave me a cool lapel pin I’d be pretty happy.

      Regardless of our military flaws and excessive brainwashing of recruits, awarding any kind of actor the highest honor from our armed forces immediately and irrevocably destroys the integrity of that medal for any other recipients future or past. It’s a sad disgrace, and I actually really enjoyed the movie.
