Correction: Military politics. It's a mix of his accomplishments, his rank, and the fact that he paid the ultimate sacrifice. It's actually fairly accurate for the US Military to award higher awards to higher ranks as well as higher awards to those that have fallen.
With an award being given post humorously, shows that they did give the ultimate price. And there are many examples of similar unjusts.
