Now that's an act of bravery! The current administration ordered all accolades that had to do with race wiped out of military files. I'm glad we have our own records. They also made a rule to dismiss anyone in the military who suffers from pseudofolliculitis barbae (razor bumps) within one year. They claim they want a clean-shaven military. That's their way of eliminating as many Black men as possible from the armed forces to get started on their coup when the time come.
