thanks for posting Mavrik- I saved the multi-media piece in my "favorites" folder for later viewing.

Last year there was a documentary I watched on the surviving MOH recipients- outstanding. What stood out was how humble these guys were.

One was a black guy who won his award serving in Vietnam- they asked him what he was most proud of- he stated the way he and his wife brought up there three sons and put them through college. He then broke down and said his wife was killed by a drunk driver in 1996- terribly sad. I'll never forget it as long as I live.
