Today a truly great American has passed away. General Norman Schwarzkopf was a Vietnam and Gulf War Veteran. He was awarded the Purple Heart (One Oak Leaf Cluster), Silver Star (Two Oak Leaf Clusters), and Bronze Star (With V device for Valor and Two Oak Leaf Clusters) just to mention a few. He was a great Soldier and once again a truly great American and it was an honor to serve under his command during the Gulf War. General Schwarzkoph knew the meaning of sacrifice having put his life in eminent grave danger for the sake of his troops. We lost an outstanding Soldier and a great American today and I felt compelled to pay my respects here on this blog. May he rest in peace.
Below is a link to his Bio for all who might be interested in reading.
