Tremendous photo of a true American hero.
Yes I agree very much so about heroes from D-Day June 6th 1944. There were many and some did not receive the MOH because it was not witnessed by others or all the witnesses were killed. One think that MOH's really don't like to hear is being called "winners" of the MOH. They are "Recipients" and winners of nothing. They earned their Medals and over half of them paid for it with theirs lives during WWII. As I am writing this I am also watching The Military Channel about D-Day and even the narrator just said Walter Ehlers "won" his medal.
