He did get the decoration. The reason we're looking for somebody with more background knowledge of what happened is that, since he will never boast about his accomplishments, we're going to do it for him. For his farewell here, we want to be able to put into perspective what a warrior he is by telling the details of what he did to earn that. We got a copy of the official citation, but being able to recount the story from somebody who can provide a first (or second) person perspective is much more effective. In an Air Force that continues to devalue the warrior ethos, he is an example of what Air Force warrior and leader should be, and we want to highlight his actions to drive that point home.
