Go to your personnel office and ask to see the awards manual as well as bulletins related to your specific unit during that time period.

Usmc Marine
Can an overweight person who can pass the U.S. Marine Corps Physical Fitness Test still join the USMC?
Can an overweight person who can pass the U.S. Marine Corps Physical Fitness Test still enlist in the USMC? For example, if a person's Body Mass Index (BMI) is around 30, but they can still meet the physical requirements of the U.S. Marine Corps, can they still enlist or become an Officer?
If your body fat percentage is within the guidelines then you are fine. Even Schwartzenegger had a BMI of nearly 50, but a BF% in the low single digits. If you are above weight and above the BF%, you are out of luck - and it doesn't matter if you are an olympic athlete... you HAVE to be within weight or BF.

Army Support
No items matching your keywords were found.
What kind of unit is United States Army Office of Military Support (USAOMS) ?
Seen bios of army enlisted and officers having served there recently but no mention of it in other sources, or army.mil.
Great question. I googled it, and got a websit for some colonel at Ft Hood, TX that commanded the unit for a short time, and YOUR question.
Other than that, nothing!

Heart Medal
May decendants of a deceased veteran, who was awarded a Purple Heart Medal, wear it on Veteran's Day?
No
That medal was awarded to an individual not the family.
It would be a violation of Title 10 US Code, a federal offense.
