that many other well decorated soldiers have been awarded i.e. LTG Puller, 1LT Murphy, or GEN Doolittle; however, I would rather his top five medals, and those alone, than the entire set of awards than any other soldier has ever held. The mere mention that a soldier who has never received the MOH is the most decorated soldier of all time is laughable. Fear not Marines. Though I believe your over-rated Chesty is not even close to being the most decorated soldier ever, I still have no doubt that a Marine still holds this honor. Now, all this being said, I am not trying to take anything away from any of these men. Well, that's not completely true. I am a little more than upset about Robert Sweeney being given ONE MOH, let alone both of them. And the five men who received the award twice for the same action. Also, I think Albert Weisbogel, Louis Williams, John King, John Cooper, John Lafferty, and Patrick Mullen should not have been awarded MOHs for peacetime actions. But I do believe that all of these men have shown bravery beyond what most are capable of showing. Answer Five Star General Henry H. Arnold, check him..
