when you get a medal of honor, you get your real one, you get a display medal.
So there's one display medal.
It's in a general's display case at Pearl Harbor.
So they strip down a B-29.
It's an ultra long flight from Guam, the secret mission.
They land, uh the general's not there.
They break into his office.
They can't find the key.
They smash the display case.
Steal.
You've got to be kidding me.
Dead series.
All this happens when my grandfather's brother was in Saipan and Lemay asked him what what can I do for you?
And he's like, I'd like to see my brother
And um the it was Tyrone Powers, the actor, was doing like a tour and he was a pilot.
So he flew my granddad's brother to his bedside and he didn't recognize my granddad because he was so burned, which started this fear of like what's he was married three months before the war.

So they get him uh LeMay gets this medal, they steal it, they scratch my grandfather's name in the back of it, and they pin it on his neck a week after it happened.
