i was in the u.s. navy back in 1986 when me and a fellow member of my patrol on the east river, eddie hill saved an officer right at the southstreet seaport and peir 17.
we were both crewmembers aboard the u.s.s. nashville lpd-13
the medal "navy and marine corps medal for heroism" was awarded to us both by president ronald reagan
it is the highest peacekeeping medal that they u.s.navy awards and it is the 10th highest ranked medal of all the services combined.......yet........ i can not find anyone else who has recieved this medal. so i was thinking of setting up a website dedicated to us.
if you know of anyone else that has recieved this medal or would like to give me some input feel free to comment
