A Humble Hero
This guy is the epitome of an American hero. First living Medal of Honor recipient since the Vietnam era.

Sounds like he deserves it, and he had someone watching over him as well.

A Humble Hero
Saw the presentation on NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams and also an interview with Brian Williams. He felt it belonged to all the people serving with him. I felt he deserves it.

A Humble Hero
I was quite impressed by this man when I watched the interview the other night. He was described as "humble and heroic" (and he WAS). Oh, that more people would demonstrate those two qualities.

A Humble Hero
:) My wife and I had the privilege of being in a PGR flag line for his welcome home to Iowa in Des Moines on 11/23/10! He gave an impromptu speech that would bring anyone to tears. He is quiet,humble, and as much of a hero as anyone I have ever read about. Makes you know all is not lost,yet!
