Heroism

The Air Force is reviewing a number of airmen who could be considered for the Medal of Honor, the service's top general said.

The late Army Col. Rick Rescorla acted heroically as a civilian in the south tower of the World Trade Center on Sept. 11.

The nation's second-highest award for valor will go Friday to Kentucky Air National Guard Tech. Sgt. Daniel Keller.

Pfc. Glendon Oakley Jr. received an Army Commendation Medal for guiding children away from the gunfire.

On Thursday, Knight flew his dad back to the place they last saw each other: Dallas Love Field Airport.

A terminal full of travelers stopped what they were doing to give a hero's welcome to a fallen pilot from the Vietnam War.

"I am in the military and I've got my license to carry, so all I think about is get my gun out and think fast."

Tech. Sgt. Michael Perolio received the third-highest award for valor in combat during a ceremony Thursday.

Bellavia says his focus now isn't his own opinions but the fellow Iraq veterans he represents.

Badly outnumbered, Staff Sgt. David Bellavia took on insurgents first with an M249 Squad Automatic Weapon and then a knife.

Starting next week, commanders will be expected to stay in shape, according to Chief of Staff Gen. David Goldfein.

Toxic leadership appears to contribute to "hopelessness," according to the top enlisted person and chief of staff.

The Marine Corps is considering using a massive drone not unlike its MV-22B Osprey to protect ships.

How the card was discovered after 50 years missing is an unlikely story of serendipity.
