Another humble Medal of Honor recipient. So many of them and many more brave men and women who haven’t received a medal, but certainly deserve it. Honor to all our brave military heroes. They all should be remembered and recognized.

Another Hero who felt that the act of falling on a live grenade wasn't anything special. Richard Sorenson lived to receive his MOH. Amazing man.

Thank you, Tara, for another MOH story.

How casually he said that somebody had to do it and he sure did step up and illustrate what a member of the Greatest Generation could do. I don't think I have ever heard of a MOH awardee who wasn't humble and he sure was. The USA can be so proud of him and all who fought so bravely.

So humble. A hero who gave himself to save others. In return others saved him.

When the time comes for action like this how do they make that split second decision? They must know that’s likely the end for them. Unbelievable self sacrifice.
