FYI, March 25 (this past Friday) is National Medal of Honor Day. I didn't know that there was even such a date until this evening. The date coincides with the day that the first Medals of Honor were awarded, March 25, 1863, for
the Great Locomotive Chase. 53 posted on

WOW! That’s some very interesting additional information. Thanks, Stonewall, both for letting us know about National Medal of Honor Day, and for the link to the men who first received the Medal of Honor.
