A true American Hero
Today President Trump presented our nations highest military honor the Medal of Honor to man who as a Green Beret medic saved many lives in battle 47 years ago. Because his actions took place in Laos while on a secret mission to gather information on the North Vietnamese he was given the second highest honor The Distinguish Service Cross.
Army Capt. Gary Rose, risked his life to save others in Vietnam War, awarded Medal of Honor | Fox News |

I'm sure there are many men or women who deserve medals but don't get them because what they did cannot be revealed for various reasons. I'm sure it happens in every war. I, for one would be just fine if they said basically, this guy is getting a medal, we aren't going to tell you why, but trust us, he earned it.
