A fitting day for such a recognition. Two Korean War conflict Pfcs earn the award posthumously after so many decades past. President Obama is now telling the tale of army Pfc.Tony Kaho'ohanohano {at left above}, who died fighting a rear guard action that saved the rest of his squad in Korea. The President seems to have found his presidential voice instead of campaigning voice, as he is at his finest in moments such this-a pin could be heard dropping as President Obama tells the tale of the young man who melted his machine gun barrel providing covering fire, shifted to a rifle/grenades when the heavy weapon was out of service and then fought hand-to-hand with a shovel until finally over-run. Over a dozen enemy soldiers were found around the final fighting position-not to mention ones likely killed from longer range, and the enemy became so diluted that American forces were able to organize a counter-attack to retake the ground.The President now tells the tale of Pfc. Henry Svehla { at right above} who charged into a gauntlet of bullets to take out multiple enemy bunkers. After being wounded in the face by mortar fragments, he refused evacuation and subsequently threw his body on a live grenade to save fellow troops around him.
