I was wondering what medals Miller and Ferguson could get. Unfortunately, all the highest ones specify you have to be in a combat zone against a foreign enemy. They would not be eligible for the Medal of Honor, for example.
They could get the Soldier’s Medal, but that’s about as high as it could go. Maybe it would be good if they amended the rules so people could get a Silver Star in this kind of situation where they risk their lives to save others while serving in uniform. What do the FR vets think?
Their OER or performance report should be lined in red white and blue so anyone else that ever looks at their record will see that they are of the highest caliber. Someone can correct me but The President (yea, sure) can offer and present certain medals.
