No denying Dunham's heroism.
It was mighty disturbing to see the White House milk this situation. Previously there has been an award ceremony at the White House and that was it.
This time around they had at least two events at the White House and another at the Marine Corps Museum opening at Quantico.

How is that milking it? Tradition has it at the White House. And the Marines wanted something there.
