First living Medal of Honor recipient since Vietnam
I have a piece that just went up announcing that SSG Sal Giunta of Battle Co. 2nd BN (ABN) 503rd INF will likely be the first living recipient of the Medal of Honor since Vietnam. I say likely since the official announcement has not been made, but we have multiple confirmations. We also waited to put this out in order to make sure we wouldn’t affect the process in any way. The Washington Post has a piece today that says the decision is still pending and so they didn’t publish his name. We heard otherwise and so the decision to publish was made.
