Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. Nick Del Calzo (Photographer) (illustrator). Format is 10.25 inches by 11.5 inches. Decorative dust jacket. 90 minute DVD present. Glossary of military Terms; xxiii, [1], 295, [1] p. Illustrations. Peter Anthony Dale Collier (June 2, 1939 - November 1, 2019) was an American writer. With David Horowitz, Collier wrote many books that made The New York Times Best Seller list and was described by the New York Times Book Review as "the premier biographer of American dynastic tragedy." His book Medal of Honor: Profiles of Valor Beyond the Call of Duty (2003) profiled then living recipients of the Medal. The president typically presents the Medal of Honor at a formal ceremony intended to represent the gratitude of the American people, with posthumous presentations made to the primary next of kin. First published on Veteran's Day 2003 to glowing reviews, energetic cross-country events, and instant national bestseller status, Medal of Honor has now been revised, updated, and augmented into an even more important and newsworthy second edition. New features include: A multimedia DVD rich in historical footage and first-person reflections of these ultimate acts of courage Full coverage of 22 additional Medal recipients by National Book Award nominee Peter Collier. Heart-rending new portraits by award-winning photographer Nick Del Calzo Introductory essay by Victor Davis Hanson, military history scholar and author of A War Like No Other, The Western Way of War, and The Soul of Battle. The 116 living Medal of Honor recipients fought in conflicts from World War II to Vietnam, serving in every branch of the armed services, and here is their ultimate record. The Medal of Honor (MOH) is the United States Armed Forces' highest military decoration and is awarded to recognize American soldiers, sailors, marines, airmen, guardians and coast guardsmen who have distinguished themselves by acts of valor. The medal is normally awarded by the president of the United States, but as it is presented "in the name of the United States Congress", it is sometimes erroneously referred to as the "Congressional Medal of Honor". There are three distinct variants of the medal: one for the Department of the Army, awarded to soldiers, one for the Department of the Navy, awarded to sailors, marines, and coast guardsmen, and one for the Department of the Air Force, awarded to airmen and guardians. The Medal of Honor was introduced for the Department of the Navy in 1861, soon followed by the Department of the Army's version in 1862. The Department of the Air Force used the Department of the Army's version until they received their own distinctive version in 1965. The Medal of Honor is the oldest continuously issued combat decoration of the United States Armed Forces. According to the Medal of Honor Historical Society of the United States, there have been up to the time of publication 3530 Medals of Honor awarded to 3,511 individuals since the decoration's creation, with over 40% awarded for actions during the American Civil War. In 1990, Congress designated March 25 annually as "National Medal of Honor Day" Second, expanded edition. Sixth printing [stated].
