Thank, you and I have a question. I was with a Army JTF during the end of freedom and most of New dawn May 210-May 2011. Was out on a Project site run or visit with locals on 05 NOV 2011 we took a IED strike and had to lay down fire to get off the X. My VIC took direct strike and gunner was wounded with me and my PPO taking hits to the head and was seen by medical and treated for concussions and bed rest for two days. JTF admin put in awards for CAB and then sent paper to Navy Admin to convert to CAR and a V for actions taken that day to help get off X. The Navy Agreed to the CAB, but did not convert said that CAB would be in record and can only wear when assigned to the Army. The V was downgraded because actions were not recognized as direct combat. So in the end the JTF gave me a DSM and CAB because of Navy Admin. The other thing is I already had a 2 CAR'S one for direct action in 2003 invasion freedom. This could be why because you can not have two for same operation and now is new dawn considered the same operation or new one?
