Been seeing this make the rounds so I figured I’d explain it. Dude was a badass but screwed up.

First off he has 2 Purple Hearts. Only awarded to servicemen who are wounded in active combat.

Next he has a Navy/Marine Corps Achievement medal with a V device for Valor. /continued The NAM with V is pretty unique to the corps because we’re notorious for under-awarding Junior Marines. Kid probably cleared a building by himself or some other Valorous action for which he should’ve gotten at least a Bronze Star with V.

Couple of facts from the Rittenhouse Trial that I tell folks when they aren’t following the trial.

-Kyle worked near Kenosha and drove through the area where the riots happened on a regular basis before the riots.
-Kyle didn’t bring the weapon to WI it was already there. 1/ -Kyle’s friend loaned the weapon and ammo to Kyle.
-WI’s gun laws are odd about 17 year olds open carrying with defendants getting the benefit.
-Kyle had been in some Fireman Cadet and Police Cadet programs as a kid.
-Kyle spent the day before the riots cleaning graffiti.

70 years ago right now, on a snowy hillside in Northern Korea, 25,000 Marines were trying to stay warm when the gongs and horns of Chinese troops went off signaling an attack by more than 150,000. The Chosin Reservoir Campaign would be the coldest battle ever fought with temps around -47°.
