Clearly. The citation virtually writes itself. God Bless him.

A lot of Medal of Honor citations read just like this. I can think of no better definition of selfless devotion to duty and your fellow soldiers than to fall on top of a grenade.
If anybody deserves it, this SEAL does.

For sure...and given his Silver Star, he'll undoubtedly be the most decorated during the entire Iraq war.

Sorry but this does not raise to MOH stature. The Army has a web site with ALL of the citations for MOH recipients. I have read most of them from WW2 on. They are downright sobering.
This SEAL went above and beyond, saving his comrades and deserves our honor and respect. They don't just pass out Silver Stars either.
