Medal of Honor: Robert D. Maxwell - HUMAN EVENTS

T/5 Robert D. Maxwell
A hero from the Greatest Generation.
Medal of Honor: Robert D. Maxwell - HUMAN EVENTS

It is humbling to read the exploits of T/5 Robert D. Maxwell who willingly covered a German hand grenade with his own body to save the lives of his fellow soldiers. The Bible says that "...greater love hath no man than he lay down his life for his friends..." which he was clearly willing to do. Yet today he still lives and is celebrating his 90th birthday! Born in Boise, Idaho, on October 26, 1920, he now lives in Bend, Oregon. May God bless him this day and every day. He is a true hero.
