Should the Navy Reconsider Murtha's Distinguished Public Service Award?
Yes. Murtha accused Marines of 'cold blooded' murder and war crimes -- accusations that have been proven false. He does not deserve the Navy's highest civilian award.No. He served honorably as a Marine, and in his 30-plus years in Congress Murtha has always championed the budget requirements of the Sea Services.Maybe. The Navy should disclose why it gave Murtha the award and address the concerns of veterans' groups who are offended by the move.
