He wouldn’t even call it courage - most of the Medal winners react that way. One died last week and the quote from him was “I was probably a little crazy that day, but if nobody did anything, people were gonna die”.
Awesome.
Colonel, USAFR

It is good to know that a soldier that loses a hand can stay in and continue to serve.

I salute you too, Sergeant, but it's a shame you have to be presented the award by such an anti-American, muslim, Kenyan-born illegal alien. This is the same illegal alien who refused to visit Normandy gravesites because he didn't want to get the Germans angry.
But, nice work, Sarge . . . the rest of the nation is proud of you.

I know I am going to get flamed.
But a MOH for throwing back a grenade?

I’m glad to see that the apparent unofficial prohibition on Medals of Honor for the War On Terror has cracked. I truly hope that ALL those deserving of the Medal are awarded it, as appropriate.
