Thanks for posting this.

Plus one on every day should be Medal of Honor Day.

I stopped at the gas station for coffee and not surprising it was not mentioned in the Richmond Times Disgrace or the Washington Post, unless I missed it.

Wow, that would be more than humbling. I felt quite in awe of standing in the presence of three medals on display in the WWII museum in New Orleans. Actually meeting the men would leave me speechless I think.

I have spent many hours reading MOH citations. Very humbling and inspiring activity.

Some irony to seeing your post today. Just last night, my wife and I finally saw Hacksaw Ridge about Desmond Doss.

God Bless them all
