Bob thank you for taking advantage of the freedom of speech that Capt Davis and others like him protect and professing to the world that you are heartless. I'm sorry about your sad life.

Where in the article does it mention anything about a medal or citation If you were to meet this Captain's family or co-workers in person right now is that what you'd say to themTo Captain Adams and all those injured in Boston last week best wishes to you and your families for a speedy recovery. Boston Strong.

Sorry but no medal or heroic citation authorized because it wasn't in the line of duty. Just in the wrong place at the right time.
Bob, Randolph
