Morons in Congress - Those are MY Medals!
Well, there's a lot of this going around.
Congress passed and it was signed into law that US issue medals cannot be transfered. The concern was that frauds were being committed with legaly and illegaly acquired US Military decorations/medals. Unfortunately, now I can't pass my medals on to my family and collectors are being arrested by the FBI (jeez, can't they go after the TERRORISTS!) on felony charges of illegal transfers of these medals. I hope they won't be haunting the yard sales.... I can see it now, little widow woman has a yard sale with her late husband's uniforms, medals/ribbons attached, and the FBI comes a callin'. Can you say abuse of power?
