Netflix has an excellent series about Medal of Honor recipients. As is the case with the Medal of Honor, most are people we are honoring and remembering on Memorial Day.
But in every soldier's heart in all the Infantry Shines the name, shines the name of Rodger Young.
Shines the name — Rodger Young, Fought and died for the men he marched among. To the everlasting glory of the Infantry Lives the story of Private Rodger Young.
From "The Ballad of Roger Young."
Thanks to RA Heinlein for introducing me to this fine American.
The Medal of Honor pages on the internet make for some dusty reading. Well worth it following all the links and names if you have the chance.
