I have read a few books about the Medal of Honor, both the actions that have merited this award and the lives of various recipients. Just reading the citations, not the Official Narratives but the dry sparse Official Citations usually leaves me in awe.
Recipients actions would seem implausibly grandiose in a work of fiction. They are the epitome of self sacrifice, reckless composure and courage.
