Daniel D. Fernández: The Man Behind the Medal of Honor
"Daniel D. Fernandez received three Purple Heart citations and was awarded the Air Medal for valorous service as a helicopter “Shot Gun Rider” during his first tour of Vietnam in 1965. He returned to Vietnam in January of 1966 and courageously smothered a grenade with his body, saving the lives of four of his comrades. His selfless sacrifice was distinguished by the posthumous award of the Congressional Medal of Honor in 1967 by President Lyndon B. Johnson."--Amazon.com
