Very devoted and brave man. He saved many and after being injured only cared about helping his fellow soldiers. He did above and beyond and certainly earned the Medal of Honor. Many others may would have stayed down being injured. Good to find his experience makes us feel proud. We, the U.S. are all the bravest people. Pride.

I would love to shake this heroes' hand and tell him what an honor to meet him. Thank Mr. Sasser!

He may have just been doing his job but he sure deserves the CMOH. I wish him good health and long life...i wish i could shake his hand and say thank you. Memories are either a blessing or a curse.

I had the great honor of shaking his hand. Rest in Peace Mr. Sasser.

That medal is a terrible burden. Not only do you have to be in a terrifying situation, but you have a constant reminder of it.

This man was 21 years old when he did these acts. What were you or I doing at 21? Chills.
