All Hail the Brave!

COURAGE—that fidelity to purpose despite physical welfare—is the natural attribute of the soldier. But there are those exceptional deeds of valor that are committed beyond the right of expectation; they are deeds that combine the highest intelligence with the utmost bravery; they are those instances of self-sacrificial service that are rendered not with thought of hardship nor of pain nor of reward, but only with the hope that the foundations of our Country and our Homes remain unshaken.
