MEANS ALOT TO ME

Has it ever come to your mind about all those soldiers that give their mind and soul to their job, and how are they reward? well bet you haven't heard about the medal of honor, it is only given to those soldiers that stand out in top of all the soldiers. The medal is not just anitype of medal it is a medal that gains every Americans respect even the presidents respect. The person that receives it, went beyond their job, it takes courage to earn it but hard work to wear it.

Each person gives their own meaning to the Medal of Honor, and to me it is the highest award an American can ever receive. the president is a very important person in America but still yet he has to salute the recipient, the president can only wish to receive the medal of honor than to be the president because the recipient get alot more respect for righting for there nation. By receiving the medal honor the recipient now has alot of work ahead of them and that's to represent America and to stand like a true hero to all the Americans.

In order for a person to be eligible to be awarded with the medal of honor they have to for beyond being an excellent soldier, it takes alot of courage because is not just about saving their own lives but risking theirs to save others. And alot of people stand up to fear to save lives and that's what distinguishes the recipient of the medal of honor from the rest of the soldiers. Not only do they go to war but they go representing their nation and they have the presure of making America the best.

"sometimes i think it was easier winning the Medal of Honor than it is to wear it." many soldiers say this because when they are doing their job as a soldier they are doing their best and not expecting a reward, but wearing it is a whole different story because now not just did they went to war but they are heroes and a hero has to always make the right decisions and make sure that they don't disappoint America. Making the right decisions and pleasing everybody is not easy at all.

The medal of honor is an award that is only presented to that unique soldier that has courage and outstanding performance the war and just did their job but gave their complete soul and mind to fight for the nation. I believe that the medal of honor should be respected and well represented because by wearing it they represent themselves and the whole 50 states that make up America.
