I've met at least one person wearing the MoH, and he's still very much alive.

Right you are - this is an Old List but it will give us an idea of how many MoH recipients are still alive.

Thanks for the follow-up.

In case you’re curious, I asked the Mods to remove my previous posts. Even after “proofreading” my first, I spotted an error after it went out. I posted a correction of sorts, and then requested that they be deleted.

Bill — You’re quite correct, there are many living recipients of the MoH.

Centurion — you may also be correct with regards to the more recent recipients. I haven’t checked that info lately.

In any event, the citizens of this country should regard them all with the highest esteem, whether living or dead. They performed heroic actions very few of us can imagine.
