"The Medal of Honor being receive."


I am a high school student that is attending to the JROTC program.One day in school my instructor,starts talking to the class about the Medal of Honor.He was explaining that soon the class was going to write an essay, but first we watched a movie, so class could have an idea about what was the essay going to be about. I t took us at least three days to watch the complete movie.After the movie was over,we need to answer three questions what is the medal of honor?What does the medal of honor mean to me? and the other question was what do think the meaning of statement "sometimes I think its easier wining the medal of honor than it is wearing it?" These are going to be some of the questions.
The medal of honor is the highest military decoration awarded by the united states government.The medal of honor has been presented to men and women who have disguised themselves in service to their country. The medal may only be awarded to a person who was on active military service at the time of the incident.
To me the Medal of honor is something important that some people might receive for doing a sacrifice for their nation.In the movie many people said that they earn the medal of honor because they were just doing their job.Sometimes its true because during war people do so may things unexpected that some don't even think of what might happen to them,some soldiers are just on the same place at the right time, that's why I admire them because now people don't do anything for anyone else,now they all think for themselves and if they do something sometimes people expect to receive something in returned and that's not how it works,the Medal of honor is receive for doing an extraordinary job.
