Sgt. Matthew Bee, a decorated Akron, Ohio Marine who spent eight months in Hadeetha, is sending one of his six medals of commendation back to the White House in protest.

Bee is returning his War on Terrorism medal, calling it “eye candy” from Bush, protesting that;

So, he took something noble and honorable and made it kind of dirty. And I always thought that medal was the one he pinned on us and said, ‘This is my war. This is my stamp in history.

Claiming that he is not anti-war, but rather pro-peace, Bee intends to travel to Washington, D.C. with a group of like minded Marines.  They will try to return their War on Terrorism medal to Bush personally or to members of Congress.
