Medal of Honor

Staff Sgt. David Bellavia's heroic actions in Fallujah earned him the highest military honor.

The presentation of the MoH to an Iraq War vet has reignited discussion over why it took 16 years to select a living...

Bellavia will become the first living Iraq War veteran to receive the Medal of Honor at a White House ceremony on Tuesday.

Badly outnumbered, Staff Sgt. David Bellavia took on insurgents first with an M249 Squad Automatic Weapon and then a knife.

The award is an upgrade from Bellavia's previously awarded Silver Star and honors his exceptional bravery.

The event masks a dispute over where and when to memorialize all those who have earned the nation's highest award for valor.

Other measures would strengthen women's health care and protect veterans from substandard health services.

Sammy L. Davis, the Medal of Honor recipient known as "The Real Forrest Gump," will make an appearance at the event.

Rep. Julia Brownley, D-California, has introduced a bill to benefit the survivors of Medal of Honor recipients.
