Medal of Honor

[LeonDixson]

I just finished watching the President present the MOH to Dakota Meyer a few minutes ago. I'm still choked up. I believe the word "hero" is overused in today's society. Dakota is a TRUE hero.

I want to again thank all members of our military, past and present, for their service.

Thats a hero....



He deserves the MOH

But what about Staff Sgt. Juan Rodriguez Chavez? Why didnt they honor him too?

They both risked their lives to save those soldiers...

All of our soldiers are heroes in one way or the other.

The word hero is used way to often. But in this case it seems appropriate.
