I’ll ask again how is a family offered a Navy Cross?

An officer shows up on your doorstep with the Navy Cross. The family says thanks but no thanks. What goes on his record and whether or not the family accepts the medal when physically offered are two different things.

That’s much more along the lines of what I understand, certainly wasn’t presented that way in the article.

Thanks for the follow up.
