Good Conduct Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Kosovo Campaign

Commendation, the Combat Action Badge and the Air Assault Badge), in the
Adcor Industries booth. (Note: As always, there were
many "celebrities" in various booths during SHOT, all with
long lines of folks waiting to meet them, but there was not a celebrity
in attendance who is fit to tie this young man's boots...and there was
no long line to meet this quiet, unassuming young man. Shame on those
who would stand in line for hours to meet an actor, a "reality TV
star" or a buxom young model, while neglecting the opportunity to
shake hands with a true HERO of our Nation. Our thanks to Adcor
Industries for introducing us to Clint Romesha. - Boge
