The astonishing stories, told in their own words, from recipients of the U.S. military's distinguished service medals--and their valor in the ultimate chaos that is war.

- Medal of Honor

From World War II, Korea, and Vietnam to Iraq and Afghanistan, these American men and women have served with leadership, bravery, and selflessness.

We don't fight out of hate. We fight for love--love of our country, our homeland, our family, and our unit.

I helped save about 130 soldiers. That's more rewarding than the medal.

I didn't earn it. I wear it for those who lost their lives protecting mine.

To be with those guys, at that time, on that day, is probably the proudest moment of my career.

Outnumbered, under pressure, under fire, these elite American warriors never give up on their fellow soldiers. They never give up on themselves. They never give up on their country. They always walk with honor.
