To: Kathy in Alaska

Thank you for so many excellent posts!

I read them whenever I see them.

I would like to submit for your consideration a very special young man, PFC Milton L. Olive III, a posthumous Medal of Honor recipient.

Perhaps you have posted this and I missed it?

A good article about the event and after.
To me, the writer has a slight bias, but it cannot detract from the honor of PFC Olive.
Still a worthwhile write up.

Thank you.

Welcome to the Canteen, DUMBGRUNT. Glad you enjoy our Hall of Heroes.

We have not had this hero on his own thread. He will be added to the list.

We thank you for your service to our country.
