A man among men! PFC Thompson covered his platoons move to a more defensible position despite his wounds. He was mortally wounded by a North Korean grenade.

Thank You Brother Dale for this #VeteranOfTheDay Army Veteran William Thompson. One of only two Black soldiers to be presented the Medal of Honor for Korea? Something smells fishy here.

Keep in mind no MOHs for WWI until the '90s and then seven for WWII were presented in 1997. . . .

MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D. - Well Brother Dale, I guess we can still clean up the past where needed. It's been over 20 years trying to get my Navy Comm. w/V upgraded to the Bronze Star w/V I was put in for from 1968.
