“I appreciate these kinds of stories because it is a part of my childhood,” Cripps said.

The Medal of Honor is the highest and most-prestigious personal military decoration that can be awarded to recognize U.S. military service members. It is given to those who have distinguished themselves by acts of valor.
“In the entire history of North America, in all the wars that have been fought with the millions of men who were in those battles, there have only been 3,525 medals of honor awarded,” Middleboro resident and co-commander of the Simeon L. Nickerson American Legion Post 64 Robert Lessard explained.
