David Hackworth: I think that of all the medals I've received, the one that is probably the most meaningful to me is the United Nations Peace Award which I was given in 1995 by the United Nations for the work I had done in Australia to create an awareness on the absolute insanity of Ronald Reagan's nuclear policies.
