Thank you. I actually had to watch it on a Zoom that my brother set up :\. I'm home with a still pretty young puppy, so couldn't make the trip for it.

Yeah, the person in charge of the color guard (don't know his rank) said something along those lines, though it was a bit difficult to hear.

I can't recall exactly how many awards my grandpa earned, but he did have 5 Bronze Stars.
