Been there, done that, and it's a sufficiently humbling experience that I certainly wouldn't wish it on any of my friends or colleagues - not sure about my enemies though. Sadly, it's part of the job. I can't imagine what it must be like for a sqn cdr.
Often in cases like this (and I haven't read the citation), the award is made to the commander personally, though it is intended as recognition for all involved. Sadly, it's not often seen like that.
By the way, the link didn't take me to the 'story', neither could I see it on the splash page - perhaps it's been pulled?
