Although mostly unrelated, I've decided to post this here rather than open a new thread.
VMF-251 has chosen to recognize three additional pilots for their actions during Okinawa: The Final Battle.
Frame 1 was generally an inauspicious introduction to FSO for the Bucs, however trumpman has been officially commended by his squadmates for scoring VMF-251's first aerial victory during Frame 1.
Virtue has been recognized for his actions, downing three enemy aircraft during Frame 2, continuing to return to combat even after the rest of the squadron was out of action.
Although Odee has since withdrawn from the squadron, his ex-mates have chosen to decorate him for downing all three aircraft of one bomber formation within the first few minutes of making contact in Frame 2.
