Publisher Description

AN ANTHOLOGY OF THE HEROICS OF SOLDIERS WHO SERVED DURING THE VIETNAM WAR 
The Medal of Honor is awarded to an individual serving or in the Armed Services of the United States who has shown valor in the face of danger against hostile forces. Only those who have gone beyond the call of beyond of duty are considered to becoming a recipient of the US Military's most prestigious award. 
The Medal of Honor is given by the US Government and presented by the President on behalf of Congress. As of October 2017, only 3,517 soldiers from the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard have been awarded with this honor, and 621 of them were posthumously awarded to courageous servicemen who lost their lives in combat. Recipients are forever recognized for their extraordinary accomplishments while serving in the military. 
There are three distinct versions of the medal: one for the Army, one for the Air Force, and one for the Navy, the Marine Corps, and the Coast Guard. Originally, the Medal of Honor was created solely for the Navy in 1861. The other military branches followed suit; the Army medal was created in 1862 and finally the Air Force in 1965. 
Thomas E. Creek, Rodney M. Davis, and Wesley L. Fox – were awarded the medal for their heroic actions during the Vietnam War (1955-1975).
