The U.S. Army has approved Purple Hearts for 39 soldiers who were injured in an Iranian attack that saw ballistic missiles target Al Iraq’s Asad Airbase.<\/p>\n

“The Army\u2019s Human Resources command approved 39 Purple Heart submissions it recently received for Soldiers wounded in the January missile attack on Al Assad airbase,” said Army spokesman Lt. Col. Gabriel J. Ramirez in a statement to the Army Times. “They continue to review an additional 11 nominations, which will be decided on the individual merits.”<\/p>\n

These awards were announced after a media report detailed the 20 Jan attack, stating the injured US personnel had been denied the Purple Heart and medical benefits given as a result of the attack. So there’s that.<\/p>\n
