Final answer:

The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) did not present the Distinguished Contribution Cross (DCC) with an award in 2002; the DCC is a military decoration, not an award recipient.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) did not present the Distinguished Contribution Cross (DCC) with an award in 2002 because the DCC is a military decoration itself, and not an entity that receives awards. The confusion might stem from the mention of awards in FIGURE 27.12, which discusses General George Marshall awarding Frank Capra the Distinguished Service Cross in 1945 for his contributions to the war effort through film, and Jimmy Stewart receiving the French Croix de Guerre among other military commendations. However, these instances are separate from any awards given by the Veterans of Foreign Wars in 2002.
