PR move or not (obviously damage control) it's still the right thing to do, so kudos.

While a good move, this guy won't exactly find a lot of opportunities to show that medal. Soldiers on Unknown Soldier duty aren't allowed to wear any military accolade (rank or otherwise). The point of the monument is to show that whoever is guarding isn't above anyone represente
