Amy Brennan (Spain) sent in an article about a U.S. Army Soldier who thought he was DQ'd when he was given back his silver medal!

American Paul Chelimo (left), a member of the U.S. Army, celebrates his silver medal in the men's 5,000 meters along with the winner, Mo Farah of Britain. Chelimo was disqualified shortly afterward, but his second-place finish was later reinstated.
