Remember in Trump 1.0 when he visited some wounded soldier, and hinted around for the guy's Purple Heart, and the guy gave it to him? Trump said "Ive always wanted one of these," and kept it.

They've got a warehouse full of them. They made zillions during WWII to prepare for the invasion of Japan, which never happened. They've never had to make a new one since. All he'd have to do is tell Hegseth he wanted one, and he have it on his desk in 30 minutes.

But it's more fun to lift one from a wounded soldier.
