Medal of Honor Awardee Embodies the Best of His Generation - The Daily Beast

Thank you CPT Swenson!

Medal of Honor Awardee Embodies the Best of His Generation - The Daily Beast: "President Obama awarded the Medal of Honor yesterday to former Army Captain William Swenson, the first Army officer since Vietnam to receive our nation’s highest military honor. The story of Swenson reveals a man who values truth and service, not just because of his actions in Afghanistan, but also through his actions after. Brave, disillusioned, resolute - in a variety of ways, Swenson personifies the best of the men and women who joined the military after 9/11 and then spent over a decade fighting two brushfire wars on the other side of the world."
