President Trump hosts Medal of Honor ceremony for Sgt. Major John L. Canley

President Trump is presenting the Medal of Honor Wednesday to Sgt. Major John L. Canley, a retired member of the U.S. Marine Corps, on Wednesday.
Canley is being honored for his service during the Vietnam War in 1968, when he, according the Marines, repeatedly rushed across dangerous terrain to carry his wounded comrades to safety, despite bearing wounds of his own. When his commanding officer was severely wounded, Canley took charge and led his fellow soldiers.

Thanks Sgt major. God bless you and all M.

Only three things in this world worth working towards . 1. When the children are grown and your spouse tells you ... you did a good job. 2. When your President calls you to honor and tells you thank you for going above and beyond your job. 3. When you pass on and finally stand before God and he says job well done my faithful servant.

Beautiful, Cynthia! So well stated and true!

What a wonderful Marine Hero

[@joshuac6389]

The roar of the crowd for this man, this hero, who embodies all that is right about being a US Marine, is awesome and well deserved. It would be nice if people had been able to focus on the Marine earning this reward instead of making it about themselves and their hurt feelings about the President.

Big up Trump.

[@edwinclark5041]

That's was exactly how he'd have it. For his boys. Th REAL THING.

Hurts to see a guy who found a way out through a medical deferment for bone spurs to be presenting any sort of military awards.

[@sdeevG]

Show me where it hurts.

[@RickMartinYouTube]

He's been in office for nearly two years and hasn't step foot in Afghanistan or Iraq war zones like Bush and Obama have done. Coward? no golf courses there

[@strongheartwoman1931]

You mean the wars that Bush and Obama caused? Yeah they should be on their knees apologizing for the millions of people they damaged, maimed, killed, displaced!

[@nickrijnberg9345]

You hat noting 2 do in Vietnam
