## Resource

Wes Moore, Maryland’s governor, is facing renewed scrutiny over his military service after it was confirmed he was never recommended for a Bronze Star — despite receiving the Army Commendation Medal during his 2004-2005 deployment in Afghanistan with the 82nd Airborne. The commander who led his unit at the time, Colonel Patrick Donahue, explicitly told reporters he didn’t submit Moore’s name for the Bronze Star, reigniting debate over the honors he earned in uniform.
