As a matter of fact, those Drone Pilots are eligible for "Combat" medals, retro-actively back to 2016. Eventually, a huge portion of our defense system will be taken over by unmanned aircraft.
The guys flying them from the comfort of their office at Lackland AFB, would be the very first to say their job isn't even close to what a F-35 pilot is doing in hostile territory.
If you want to compare a guy filling out the postcard that came with his $79.95 drone from Amazon, to a professional drone fighter pilot, working for the USAF, protecting his county, I think you should think that through a bit more.
Any more questions?
