Briefly, I am involved with a number of WWII veterans/next of kin of same that served as infantrymen. They did not possess the MOS as an infantryman, which was not required until the 1960's.
I have documents revealing hundreds of combat veterans with a varity of MOS's involved in the Battles of the Bulge, Bataan, and Corregidor.
I don't think so since Commanding Generals, and their subordinates approved, authorized, and recommended the CIB.
I am attaching a letter sent to President Obama regarding the subject.
