I had a corporal in Viet Nam who was shot a second time by an ARVN. We gave him a purple heart for that one.

I think the Ft Hood soldiers deserve some sort of recognition, and this is in keeping with George Washington's intent:

"The General ever desirous to cherish virtuous ambition in his soldiers, as well as to foster and encourage every species of Military merit directs whenever any singularly meritorious action is performed, the author of it shall be permitted to wear on his facings, over his left breast, the figure of a heart in purple cloth or silk edged with narrow lace or binding."
