Is there a place on your site to read about all of the MOH winners and their stories?

Private First Class Robert E. Simanek,a dedicated Marine and very brave. Having had two uncles serve in World War II this family has definitely served our country greatly. It is astonishing that even though he couldn't move his legs he was able to direct the tank and artillery fire. When the President told him to turn around and face the crowd I'm sure there were many proud faces looking up at him. We salute him proudly and with great honor!

Bob was a roommate at Michigan State. We had many hard fought chess matches. He hated to lose.

1st. There is no greater good a person can do than commit his life to god and country. It is not supprising where this commitment came from after reading his family's background. This is what Americans are all about. God Bless !!!

As a co worker with Bob, I can honestly say that Bob never discussed being awarded the MOH unless directly asked. He did not talk about his accomplishments. He would rather talk about golf! In fact, he used to say he did not know if he was going to get the MOH or get in trouble for going up that hill without making sure the enemy had left. I was very proud to have met Bob and am thankful there are men like him defending our liberty.

I love you Uncle Bob! You are the sweetest, most modest man. You have always been my hero, even when I was very young before I knew you won the Medal of Honor. My girls feel the same.

Happy Veteran's Day!

This is a message for my Uncle Bob for good wishes for Veterans Day 2009. And here's to a happy Belated USMC Birthday as well. And as my dad said, "Don't you think he looks like Wally Cox?" Way to go! KJS
