Ger O'Meara, Secretary of Lorrha, Martin O'Meara VC Committee, talks about the Victoria Cross medal sent by the Australian Government to the home place of its recipient.

(8-10-22)In 1945, when Congress began reviewing the record of the most conspicuous acts of courage by American soldiers during World War II, they recommended awarding the Medal of Honor to 432 recipients. Despite the fact that more than one million African-Americans served, not a single Black soldier received the Medal of Honor. The omission remained on the record for over four decades. But recent historical investigations have brought to light some of the extraordinary acts of valor performed by black soldiers during the war. Men like Vernon Baker, who single-handedly eliminated three enemy machine guns, an observation post, and a German dugout. Or Sergeant Reuben Rivers, who spearhead his tank unit's advance against fierce German resistance for three days despite being grievously wounded. Meanwhile Lieutenant Charles Thomas led his platoon to capture a strategically vital village on the Siegfried Line in 1944 despite losing half his men and suffering a number of wounds himself. Join us when Robert Childs examines Immortal Valor on this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large.

FLAMETHROWER Bryan Mark Rigg's latest non-fiction military history book Flamethrower documents Hershel “Woody” Williams' Medal of Honor process. Dr. Rigg's research brings into question the facts surrounding “Woody” Williams' actions that earned him the Medal of Honor. Accomplished military historian, Bryan Mark Rigg, reconstructs Woody Williams's remarkable story, from his youth on a dairy farm in West Virginia to his experiences as a Marine on Guadalcanal, on Guam and on Iwo Jima. Rigg tells Williams' story vividly, and objectively, and places it in the context of the broader Pacific theater of World War II. Using never-before-seen documents and interviews, Rigg brings out new information about the Pacific War unknown until now. As he explores Woody's life, Rigg enables the reader to better appreciate the brave Marines and their heroics. Moreover, Rigg explores the numerous problems with Woody and his narrative. As a result, this book also documents Woody's controversial Medal of Honor process, one of the most controversial Medal of Honor stories to come out of World War II.

The national anthem has been ringing out across the Commonwealth Games pool and velodrome once again this morning. New Zealand has just won a fifth swimming gold medal after Andrew Jeffcoat powered to victory in the 50-metre backstroke. The Aucklander forged a lead early in the one-length race and held off the challenge of South Africa's Pieter Coetze to win in a national record time of 24.65 seconds. New Zealand's track cyclists stockpiled two gold and two silver medals overnight to finish the leading nation at the velodrome. Ellesse Andrews, who had already won two golds and one silver at the weekend, crossed the line first in the women's Keirin this morning. She told Sky Sport she's exceeded her own expectations at the Games. Andrews is not the only cyclist to be bringing three golds home from the Birmingham Games - her teammate Aaron Gate has also topped the podium three times. Gate was awarded his third gold this morning, after finishing first in the points race. Fellow New Zealander, Campbell Stewart, followed him over the line to win silver. Gate told sky sport that the relationship is really strong between himself, Stewart and the rest of the team. The first medal of the day came even earlier in the velodrome, with cyclist Michaela Drummond winning silver in the women's scratch race. The track cycling is now over for the Games, with the New Zealanders finishing with a whopping 13 medals in the velodrome - eight of them gold. New Zealand sits third on the medal table, with 24 medals overall -- 13 of those are gold. Sports reporter Felicity Reid has been at the aquatics centre in Birmingham.

U.S. Medal of Honor awardee Sgt. Leroy Petry joins Tim to tell his Medal of Honor story, from a life and death battle in Afghanistan to the very definition of the word, “honor.” Sgt. Petry is a retired U.S. Army Ranger who is one of the few to receive the military's highest honor, and one of the very few medal recipients who have survived to tell their own story. This episode was first released October 20, 2020. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/Encore_-_Sgt._Leroy_Petry.mp3   In April of 1862, a group of Union Soldiers in the middle of the Civil War had an assignment. They were supposed to make it across Confederate lines to steal a Confederate train car and ride it to Union lines. Along the way, they were supposed to destroy track and depots, cutting off the Confederate supply lines and transportation. That group of Union solders was called “Andrews Raiders.”  Twenty-five men volunteered for the mission that ended in a dramatic train chase and capture by Confederate forces. Eight of the original 25 volunteers escaped. Three were declared missing. Another eight were hanged. Among those who were executed was leader James Andrews. Another six found their way back to the Union Army as part of a prisoner exchange a year later. That following March, the survivors met with President Lincoln who thanked them for their service and their efforts in the daring mission, and he told them they'd be the first to receive a new honor. The Medal of Honor. And with that, he had a prototype of the medal and gave it to the youngest member of the group, Private Jacob Parott. Jacob Parott was the first in the Army to receive what is now regarded as the highest honor any member of America's military can receive. The Medal of Honor is the award for valor in combat for all members of the armed forces. Since 1862, more than 3,400 such honors have been bestowed, many if not most of them, posthumously. Not many who earn such an award, live to talk about it. Today, the Medal of Honor is awarded sparingly to service members who as the Army says are, “the bravest of the brave; and that courage must be well documented.” Since the medal is awarded sparingly, and so many of those who receive it die in combat, there are few recipients alive today to tell their story. Retired Sgt. Leroy Petry of the U.S. Army Rangers is one of those few warriors. The U.S. Army Ranger Creed Recognizing that I volunteered as a Ranger, fully knowing the hazards of my chosen profession, I will always endeavor to uphold the prestige, honor, and high esprit de corps of the Rangers. Acknowledging the fact that a Ranger is a more elite Soldier who arrives at the cutting edge of battle by land, sea, or air, I accept the fact that as a Ranger my country expects me to move further, faster and fight harder than any other Soldier. Never shall I fail my comrades. I will always keep myself mentally alert, physically strong and morally straight and I will shoulder more than my share of the task whatever it may be, one-hundred-percent and then some. Gallantly will I show the world that I am a specially selected and well-trained Soldier. My courtesy to superior officers, neatness of dress and care of equipment shall set the example for others to follow. Energetically will I meet the enemies of my country. I shall defeat them on the field of battle for I am better trained and will fight with all my might. Surrender is not a Ranger word. I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy and under no circumstances will I ever embarrass my country. Readily will I display the intestinal fortitude required to fight on to the Ranger objective and complete the mission though I be the lone survivor. Rangers lead the way!

Host Scott Fisher opens the show with David Allen Lambert, Chief Genealogist of the New England Historic Genealogical Society and AmericanAncestors.org. David begins by talking about a remarkable find he recently made in New Hampshire, providing amazing details about his ancestors who were from there. The guys then speak about a frightening story that talks about how enemy states could turn your raw DNA results to custom make poison with which to target your family. Then, National Geographic has a great story about how we went from being hunters and gatherers to monument builders. The New Yorker has a great story about “The Secret Art of Family Photos.” And, some Medal of Honor winners of the past may be losing their high honors. Find out why. Next, in two parts, Fisher visits with Adrienne Abiodun, a DNA specialist with sponsor Legacy Tree Genealogists. Adrienne recently returned from a family history vacation to Nigeria, as the father of her two children is Nigerian. But before leaving, Adrienne learned of a Nigerian connection in her own line. This led to an incredible experience in Africa with a DNA kit. Then, Adrienne talks about DNA testing and lineage societies… where they stand today. David then returns for two more questions on Ask Us Anything. That's all this week on Extreme Genes, America's Family History Show!

Liz Cheney destroys Donald Trump – He violated his oath. He cannot be president again: Even though Liz Cheney is under duress in her race, she is hitting Trump harder than anyone else. He cannot serve as president again. Morning Joe's Mika Brzezinski slams Cornyn & GOP: Who are these Republicans? Who are these people?: Mika Brzezinski captured the sentiment of most Americans perfectly as she called out the callousness of the Cornyn and Republicans. Good guys with guns are not enough for the bad guy with a WoW: They are wrong. Not even many good guys with guns can save you from the wrath of one bad guy with a weapon of war, an #AR15. I wish Cedric Alexander (@Calex_law) was right but experience tells otherwise. MSNBC Ari Melber – Jan 6 testifying Republicans are no heroes and deserve no Medal of Freedom: Some are glorifying Republicans who are truthfully testifying at Jan 6 commission. Ari Melber slammed that absurdity. GET IT? It is not CRT they are scared of at all. It is about learning our real history: CNN's United Shades of America's W. Kamau Bell demonstrably proved those vilifying CRT are simply scared of being truthfully informed about our history. Bernie cuts off the host's deference to Manchin: He intentionally sabotaged the president's agenda: Sen. Bernie Sanders forcefully interjected at Martha Raddack's false characterization of Joe Manchin's sabotage. Bernie said Manchin was never serious. Why I include right-wing trolls in my media show's chat with pleasure: If Progressive media hosts and commentators continue singing solely to the choir, we are not doing our job. We are to empower our own, yes. But we must have a bigger purpose. Some conflate Capitalism, free enterprise, socialism and Venezuela deceptively: Venezuela is the boogie-man the Right to use against Progressives who want equity got all Americans. Here is the reality they never tell you. EPIC! Bernie slams Semiconductor companies seeking welfare for ‘a problem you created.': Senator Bernie Sanders let the semiconductor corporations have it as they threatened to leave America if Congress did not pass the CHIPS Act, corporate welfare. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/support

Back in 2015, I was at the Boston Public Library for a special exhibition called “We Are One,” which showcased items from their collection dating from the French and Indian War to the Constitutional Convention, showing how thirteen fractious colonies forged a single national identity. Libraries have a lot more than just books, of course. The BPL has everything from streaming movies and music to historic maps to medieval manuscripts to Leslie Jones' photos to one remarkable gold medal. Some of the items on display were breathtaking, like a map hand drawn by George Washington, Paul Revere's hand drawn diagram showing where the bodies fell during the Boston Massacre, and a gorgeous 360 degree panorama showing the view from the top of Beacon Hill during the siege of Boston. What stopped me in my tracks, though, was a solid gold medal. It was about three inches in diameter, but it was hard to tell through the thick and probably bulletproof glass protecting it. On the side facing me, I could see a bust of George Washington and some words, but they were too small to read. A special bracket held the medal in front of a mirror, and on the back I could make out more lettering, as well as a cannon and a group of men on horses. Later, I learned that this was the Washington Before Boston Medal, commemorating the British evacuation of Boston. It was the first Congressional gold medal, and the first medal of any kind commissioned by the Continental Congress during our Revolutionary War. This illustrious medal's journey to the stacks of the Boston Public Library will take us from Henry Knox's cannons at Dorchester Heights to John Adams at the Second Continental congress in Philly to Ben Franklin in Paris to a Confederate's dank basement in West Virginia during the Civil War.
