Wednesday Hero

On April 30, 143 airmen, after a 70 year wait, were finally awarded the POW Medal they had earned. The 143 airmen were held captive in the Wauwilermoos prison camp in Switzerland. Of the 143, only eight were able to attend the ceremony:  Lt. Col. James Misuraca  Maj. James Moran   First Lt. Paul Gambaiana  First Lt. James Mahon   Tech. Sgt. Alva Moss  Staff Sgt. John Fox  Sgt. William Blackburn   Sgt. George Thursby You can read more   here 

 These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives just so others may get to enjoy freedom. For that I am proud to call them Hero.
