IN HONOR OF A VERY RARE AND SPECIAL WARRIOR

It took 13 years for this very special warrior to have his Medal of Honor approved
and bestowed upon him by then President Ronald Reagan in honored recognition of his
unmatched and heroic actions during a 6-hour long battle to save an ambushed team
of U.S. Army Green Berets who were on patrol and surrounded by a overwhelming force
of enemy soldiers. This Green Beret medic jumped on a helicopter with only a knife
& his medic bag to try and save his wounded brother warriors that day in Vietnam.
I was sent this video about his life, and I salute him for the actions he took that
day which was far above and beyond the call of duty, a truly amazing American Hero.
