It's just unbelievable what a human being can endure. I hate war for all parties involved....

I've completed this thread on the Medal of Honor recipients of the modern USAF, though I am sure there will be more names to add in the future. I'll being moving on to start threads for the USAAF and its predecessors. The majority of these posts have been mere synopses of the whole stories behind the contributions and sacrifices of these airmen. Meanwhile, if you would like to read the complete stories, try the following link to the Air Force Association Magazine...
http://www.afa.org/
From the main page, type in the name of the airman you would like to read about.
Several results will appear, with the top-most usually being the story of interest.
Click on the link and you should be taken to a more complete story on the life, career, and events leading to their sometimes final act of courage and self-sacrifice.
You can also try the same kind of search at wikipedia.

AW, your post http://www.forumsforums.com/3_9/showpost.php?p=148063&postcount=20 was a great addition to this thread. When you meet these older guys and gals around town, you just have no way of knowing what they may have gone through, and sometimes neither do their families. When you see an older driver slowing things down in traffic, and you note the VET, DAV, or POW plate, give him some more time and space. He may have spent four years in a hole for you.

That's how I feel too. I'm constantly telling Redneck the old couple slowing up traffic is someone's parents, and he would want the same courtesy extended to his parents.
I'm still in awe of this man. 4 years like that. I would have loved to have more time with him and just talk. It's hard to explain just how greatful I am that these men went thru that for me and my family.
