Medal of Honor recipient and board member makes compelling case for new national monument before U.S. House of Representatives [ Editor’s Note: The pool of living Medal of Honor people continues to dwindle, and so does the number of events they can do each year where they can press the flesh of America’s school kids so they can have the memory of having met one of them, to tell their kids some day. While there seems to be military monuments galore for all things conceivable I had assumed there was one for the Medal of Honor somewhere. I was wrong. But I am happy to report that as these missing items are spotted we see groups forming to address them and get the projects done while there is still time to have enough living attendees to make a small crowd.
