All I want to add the the discussion of him tossing medals over the capital wall is:
The most decorated american veteran in US history, Col. David Hackworth gave all his medals away to little kids in Australia because they meant absolutely nothing to him. He felt that since they were given to him by a military who made disgusting decisions and irrationally put americans in harms way when it was not needed that he didn't want to associate with them anymore.
