Vietnam Vet Stripped of Silver Star




Vietnam veteran Wade Sanders has been stripped of his Silver Star by the Navy.
A Vietnam veteran who defended Sen. John Kerry against "Swift Boat" attacks in the 2004 presidential race has been stripped of his Silver Star by the Navy -- more than a year after he was sentenced to prison on a child pornography charge.

But the Silver Star wasn't stripped from Wade Sanders because of the child porn conviction, per se.

Military officials told Fox News the medal was revoked in 2010 after Navy investigators looked into his record and found administrative errors surrounding how the award was created.
Administrative errors? Erroneously heroic due to typos? Heh.
