I just read this article about how someone has vandalized the Medal of Honor Memorial in Indianapolis, IN. Someone has spray painted insults to President Bush and IN Governor Mitch Daniels on the memorial, broken large glass panels engraved with the names of war veterans, and sprayed general grafiti over much of the memorial site. Some speculation has been pointed at students on spring break (college? high school?).

The Medal of Honor is the highest award for valor and heroism that the United States can bestow. The men who have received the Medal of Honor are the very best our nation has to offer. These men have (often) given their lives to defend freedom and to protect the lives of their fellow soldiers, sailors and marines. All you have to do is to read the Medal citations to understand the level of heroism, galantry and honor that have been displayed. There are none better!
