Better LATE than Never....



A 92-year-old North Carolina man has finally received the Purple Heart he earned more than 70 years ago while fighting in Belgium during World War II. Oscar Davis Jr. received the Purple Heart on Saturday.



Davis was a private assigned as a radio telephone operator when he was knocked down by a large piece of shrapnel during the Battle of the Bulge. The radio on his back protected him, but the German artillery barrage knocked down a tree that fell on Davis, injuring his spine He was paralyzed from the waist down for three weeks and ultimately rejoined his unit in Germany.



Davis was told long ago that he would receive the honor, but the award paperwork was never signed.

In our country too, the honour of Veterans often gets lost in the shuffle of bureaucratic paperwork. I am happy to hear that this Vet was alive to receive his long overdue honours.

Our Veterans were treated like crap by the previous administration and now we are having to work overtime to make up for it.

The highest honor a grateful nation can give in my book... far to many awarded posthumously.
