I once got hammerd for saying someone "won" a MOH. Due to the belief its not really "winning". Thats why people say "awarded" and not "won", its disrespectful..

That was just something I was told once.

That's silly semantics. If someone makes that correction on you again, ask that person if they received the MOH. If they answer "yes," salute smartly and shake their hand. If they have not received the MOH, ask them why they get off on silly corrections.
