PURPLE HEART ELIGIBILITY REVISED

Posted at 10:51 AM on Wednesday, March 7, 2012 by dist10

Both the Army and the Marine Corps will allow more battlefield concussions to be eligible for the Purple Heart. The decision to expand the definition for concussions means thousands of Purple Heart medals could be going to soldiers and Marines who may have been denied in the past. Army should reapply through their chain of command; veterans can call 888-276-9472 or send an email to hrc.tagd.awards@conus.army.mil Marines should consult the Commandant\'s coordinating instructions at http://www.marines.mil/news/messages/paqes/MARADMIN245-11.aspx/.
