Sgt. Woodrow Keeble

Its men like this I find extraordinary. They go above and beyond service to a country that never fully accepts them. Sgt. Woodrow Keeble became the first full blooded Siox to be awarded the nation’s highest military award this last week. He saw service in WWII, but the medal was for action he saw in the Korean War. You can read the full story here.

There are similar stories with Japanese American troops that fought in Germany against the Nazis. Amazing stories of men who gave all and are now only becoming recognized for their sacrifices.
