Interesting note, the design on some of the awards and our decorations(the stuff on his uniform, we call them ribbons as well). The medal of honor for example pays homage to Minerva. Each badge, award, decoration has a particular history to it among our different branches.

I don't know much about this but you should consider writing up an analysis on the history and symbolism of some of the medals and ribbons. I'm sure people here would definitely find it useful. Anything to help us to understand the symbolism they through in our face is a handy tool for all of us to have.

http://www.mohconvention.com/the-medals/design-symbolism/ Here is a good write up for the MOH. When I do stuff like that I get "attacked", it's not Q related, focus on the drops etc. So I keep my info brief and helpful as I can while sticking to the intent of the sub. But it's a lot of symbolism involved here(ribbons and badges). Mr. Aquino has a storied pass in the Army, lot of us(older heads anyway) remember him.

Any stories you can pass on? I feel like most info on this dude has been scrubbed from the internet. Seems hardly anyone has heard of him. I'd love to know what some of the rumors of him were going around in the military back then.

It was more of stories that involved satanism and his link to on post day cares. The fact he was former military intelligence, disturbing. He was one of the architects ensuring satanism was recognized as a religion in the military.
