Obama's day: Medal of Honor
President Obama honors heroism on Tuesday.
Obama will belatedly award the Medal of Honor to 24 Army veterans who served during World War II, and the Korean and Vietnam wars.
The honorees -- only three of whom are still alive -- were selected after Congress ordered a review to determine whether Jewish or Hispanic troops were denied the Medal of Honor in years past because of prejudice.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
