"24 veterans receive the Medal of Honor from President Obama" WaPo
http://www.washingtonpost.com/politi...9f9_story.html
"President Obama awarded the Medal of Honor to
24 veterans Tuesday, most of whom were
initially passed over because they were Hispanic, Jewish or African American.
The emotional ceremony marked the culmination of a 50-year campaign waged by Mitchel Libman, a Korean War veteran who was convinced his childhood friend from Brooklyn was denied the nation’s highest commendation for combat valor because he was Jewish."
Thanks for doing the right thing, Mr. President.
