مستخلص: |
The article features Robert J. Miller, a staff sergeant in the U.S. Army who posthumously received the Medal of Honor, the highest military honor given to a soldier, for giving his life in the war in Afghanistan on January 25, 2008 to save the lives of his Special Forces teammates and 15 Afghan soldiers by allowing them to escape an ambush kill zone. It cites that U.S. President Barack Obama presented the award to the Miller family on October 6, 2010 at the White House. Details of the firefight and the actions of Miller that day are described. |
