It has been decades since John Basilone served bravely in Guadalcanal and Iwo Jima, but his country hasn’t forgotten him.

Rushing to recover the body of his dead comrade Melvin Morris took on the North Vietnamese for hours. His actions earned him the Medal of Honor.

In November 1950 Ralph Puckett and his 50 Rangers repeatedly held off a Chinese battalion. Puckett’s actions that day made him a legend.

It is high time that Alwyn Cashe receives the Medal of Honor for his heroic actions in 2005 in Iraq. President Biden should act on it immediately.
