What was the original intention of the idea behind a Purple heart, was it meant to be for any injury in battle (or death) , how does someone like John Kerry get 3 of them for scratches and real soldiers for real injuries did'nt, how come no one can find who nominated John Kerry for them otther than his own recommendations. Another question now that Norway has brought out its version "Forsvarets medalje for sårede i strid" The Armed forces medal for injured in Battle. 7th one down in this article http://www.mil.no/fakta/start/om/gradero...
What other countires besides US and Norway has a "Purple Heart"?
Purple Heart and now Norway has its own version?
I wish I could read Norwegian (My Grandmother would be so proud) but the ribbon for that First Medal looks exactly like the US Bronze Star.
Reply:Yeah... The Norway version of the Purple Heart is also called Sour Grapes.
