Any Navy Veteran who served from 2-Sept.-1945 to 26-Dec-1991, prevented World War III for 46 years. We must never forget those who did pay the Ultimate price with their lives. USS Scorpion SSN-589, and many others. I Salute your Bravery.....

    Yes, and now we are being labeled as "pre-gulf war vets", they don't even want

    to mention the Cold War. The apologist has stepped on veterans since day one.

    I don't really think that this subject is on the Obama Agenda…..I think he has more important things on his mind….like ruining our nation and labeling all of us veterans as terrorist…..

    We need all the help we can get. You are all Cold Warriors, and we earned this medal. We went through the most terrifying period in history, just waiting for the first bomb or missile to go up.

    We also are making plans for a memorial in Washington, DC for the Cold War.
