His Corps Value Was Bravery

His Corps Value Was Bravery - Los Angeles Times

On Nov. 10, 2004, in 30 minutes of close combat, Marine Pfc. Christopher Adlesperger, a soft-spoken, religious young man who loved poetry and art, attacked an enemy stronghold in Fallouja, Iraq, and killed at least 11 insurgents.

A nomination does not ensure that an award will be made. No Marine has been awarded the Medal of Honor for combat occurring since Vietnam.

Not a religious or political statement. Just one of a young man who died trying to take care of his family. Figured you guys would appreicate the story.
