Who is Clint Romesha? The article says this in part. Please read the entire thing.

"On Monday, he will become only the fourth living person to receive the Medal of Honor for actions in Afghanistan or Iraq.
But on that day, deep in a valley of the mountains of Afghanistan's Nuristan province, it wasn't about a medal.
It was about the men in his section. It was about the buddies he tried to save. It was about the comrades he lost.
In war, heroism is not the intention. But sometimes, it's the result."
