How brave were Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty? Read here and you'll get a glimpse. Highly, highly recommended, and hat tip to Instapundit.

#4   That can be changed by an act of Congress. If anyone deserves the MOH, these two do.
Something to ask every candidate for Congress if you should meet them at a campaign event.

#3  But the stunning part of the story is that Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty killed 60 of the attacking force.

A little detail that has been left out of the narrative.

#2  Depending on how long they've been out, there's a number of loopholes out in the laws. It maybe possible to back date a 'recall to active duty' via the Board of Military Records, usually requiring someone with power of attorney of the estate, and then submit the MOH papers.

#1  Everyone should write their Congressional representatives DEMANDING that these two men are awarded the Medal of Honor. Yes, I know, the Medal of Honor is only awarded to active duty personnel. That can be changed by an act of Congress. If anyone deserves the MOH, these two do.
