"But in a larger sense, we can not dedicate — we can not consecrate — we can not hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but can never forget what they did here."

I believe I recall reading about this man in the excellent book “No Greater Glory” about the battle for Fallujah.

RIP.

Denied MOH because there was some doubt he was conscious...

Because the unconscious often scoop up live grenades and shield their buddies from the blast as a gallant dieing act...

SecDef should correct and award Sgt Peralta the MOH...Perhaps a Pres Cruz or Trump could correct this injustice...

I remember when the MOH was declined. I’m glad he is being honored this way.
