I seen something about him years ago... sad it took so long.
Glad he finally received his metal.
Thank you for your service Sir.

[aftonair]

He is a hero.
He deserves to be honored.
Disgraceful that it took so long to show him the respect that he has been due all of these decades.

[michelejackson]

Of course it took decades for them to give a Black man the credit he is owed.

About 20 times the amount at current of those who would receive one.

There was a huge amount of American heroism in Vietnam.

The Army lost his paper work, twice. Yea right. A true gentleman.

*Another Draft Dodger pinning a Military Medal on a Heroes chest. Ridiculous !*

[crimeworkers]

Praises to this hero finally getting the honor he deserves, he is a prime example of the rapid racism in America, and while we have made improvements, we still have a long way to go.
ALM
ALL LIVES MATTER
