Story of the finest bravery.
A soldier my uncle served with in Vietnam received the Medal for the same sacrifice. He (my uncle) suspects that his action spared him at least significant injury.
As soon as I'm done with my current books I'll be moving on to "Lone Survivor" by Marcus Luttrell, about Operation Redwing and the 3 men killed from SEAL Team 10. My friends who've read it say it is absolutely awe-inspiring. One of the SEALs killed, Michael Murphy, also received the MOH.
