If you’re ever in Indianapolis, be sure and visit the Congressional Medal of Honor Memorial which is close to the RCA Dome. It was dedicated on May 29,1999. I was in attendance at the Indy 500 when they had 96 of the living recipients at the race. It was an awesome sight, especially when the B2 flew over. At the time, there were 3436 recipients honored with a description of their actions which earned them the medal.

Yep.

We also get to see surviving Medal of Honor recipients at the annual reunions.

Amazing bunch of men.
