24 soldiers to receive Medal of Honor

"The Medal of Honor will be awarded to 24 people, three of them living, who served in wars of past decades, the White House announced today.

In recognition of their valor in World War II, Vietnam and Korea, President Obama will present the awards on March 18, according to a statement from the White House.

Each of the soldiers was previously recognized by award of the Distinguished Service Cross, the nation’s second highest military award. That award will be upgraded to the Medal of Honor in recognition of their gallantry, intrepidity and heroism above and beyond the call of duty."
