I've finished it on normal and extreme modes now, but there're still a few medals I haven't got yet.. when I finished it on normal I had 2 guys with bronze star and 2 with bronze and silver, all had the POW medals and the Vietnam commendation, but I figure you always get those 2 because of the missions which are compulsory.

When I finished it on extreme I noticed all the guys had purple hearts (medal you get for being wounded) even thought I was wounded a lot on normal as well . Probably more so.

What about the others? I don't know how to get them..

And I need something more to do with the game now I've finished extreme

I'm not sure what you need to get the silver star, only junior got it when I finished it in extreme, I have no idea.

Thats the US release date, it was released in Europe and other PAL countries in early September. I'm pretty sure the developer is in England, that'd explain it
