I can only say as somewhat of an outsider in this matter that I have a lot respect for Marion and others who are determined to right what appears to me to be a wrong. I know from my long association with her website that M1 has continually fought to ensure the award of the CIB goes to those who fought as infantry during WWII. The sadness in this is that the Combat Engineers veterans of WWII are a dwindling number and may not have lived long enough to collect their CIB. That is a travesty!! I wish all success in their quest.
