Looks like in the 70's it was not Politically Correct (especially for a Democrat running on an antiwar platform) to have body counts in his citations so he had new citations slipped in...then later, as the country became a bit more patriotic (Reagan era), thought it would look better to have a citation that made him look a bit more heroic.

LOL...only a dumbass would put a combat "V" on a medal that is only awarded for combat.

Some are born free. Some have freedom thrust upon them. Others simply surrender
