Thank you very much for posting this story. I emailed the information to all the media outlets in my community, but not one has expressed any interest yet. My grandfather was on the crew that was awarded the medal. He died seven years ago, but our family attended the ceremony on Tuesday April 24 to receive the medal in his place. This has been an amazing experience, and we are so appreciative to the Air Force for all they did to honor our family members.

As with all Armed Forces Press Releases it was sent directly to all print media outlets and is available freely on the web. So, even though you sent the story to your local media outlets I'm not surprised at the contumeliousness (insulting display of contempt in words or action) of the media towards anything about the military.
