"President Donald Trump has awarded the Medal of Honor to three veterans, honoring their acts of heroism in battle in Vietnam and Afghanistan.
At the White House ceremony, Trump awarded the nation's highest military honor to retired Marine Corps Maj. James Capers Jr. and retired Army Maj. Nicholas Dockery. He also awarded the medal posthumously to Marine Corps Col. John Ripley, who died in 2008, with the honor accepted by his son, Tom Ripley...
'As we approach the 250th anniversary of our founding, we remember that we owe everything to heroes like those we celebrate today -- men who went willingly to the darkest and most dangerous corners on Earth to defeat evil so we could live free,' Trump said.
'That's exactly what happened. These are great men, great people.'"
