  • These types of heroes, without a doubt, deserve far more than the $1,027.00 per month that they are given. But ask any single one of them... they'll all say that all they ask in return is a simple thank you, and that they would do it all over again just to save lives. Now that's what real heroes are made of. (Just don't call them a hero to their face, you might offend them.)

  • George never liked the hero role. He knew that he was a figurehead representing all veterans, and so he put up with it. He will be missed.

  • Its sad that after almost 3 years and this only has 5000 views.

    Whats even worse is that if you type in "Medal Of Honor" and 90% of what you get are videos about a stupid video game.

    These people are heroes of a caliber you and I will never know.

    God bless all of them.

  • Every man that stepped foot on Iwo Jima is a hero
