Medal of Honor Recipient Woody Williams

Saw this picture from Arlington National Cemetery, taken today as a number of Medal of Honor recipients laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. This picture included Woody Williams, who is now 95 years old and was awarded the Medal of Honor by President Truman for his actions during the battle for Iwo Jima. One of the blessings of living in Ohio/West Virginia was the opportunity to meet him on number of occasions, including a special scout dinner. Pulled these pictures out for Tanner, Hunter, Porter, Cooper, and Sawyer. Woody Williams is one of the kindest, and most honorable men I have met. I am grateful for the opportunity.
