Trump signs law authorizing Medal of Honor to Alwyn Cashe for heroic vehicle rescue in Iraq

Thank you my friend MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D. for posting the wonderful news that President Donald Trump on Friday, December 4, 2020 signed H.R. 8276 into law, which authorized the president to grant the award to Army Sgt. 1st Class Alwyn Cashe by waiving a requirement it be approved within five years of the heroic action. Cashe repeatedly entered a burning vehicle to recover soldiers wounded in a roadside bombing in Samarra, Iraq in Oct. 2005, despite being drenched in fuel.

I am thankful that SFC Alwyn Cashe has been honored with the Medal of Honor.
