"Unfair"...not at all!

You feel Indiana is "unfair" for not wanting a non-combat casulaty listed on a combat memorial? Well, my friend, you are either a combat casulaty or not. It's sort of like being "sort of pregnant"...either you are or you're not...it's really quite that simple. I suspect you are trying to create a hero or mythical image. No, it's completely fair and legitimate. Leave the combat casulaties alone and forget trying to justify a combat casulaty where there simply isn't one. That would be disrepectful to those of us who wear the Purple Heart...and that decoration costs, my friend.
