Medal of Honor Recipient

I didn't have access to post in Attention to Orders or Above and Beyond, so I will post this here. This Corpsman was not special operations, but WAS awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions during the Korean War. I thought it was more than worth a mention.

Rest in peace, Master Chief.
