  1. As an Army Ranger, I have deep respect for our hero’s I meet thru the few Vet associations I attend. I am also a VA mortgage underwriter, and one of the perks is seeing the DD214’s. I have run across quite a few MOH winners, love looking them up on Wiki and reading about their feats. God Bless all of them.
