The Medal of Honor

Dakota stood proudly as President Barack Obama presented him with the “Medal of Honor.” At this particularly proud moment, the memories of his heroic actions must have been fresh in his mind. His actions saved many lives by allowing him to escape the troublesome Taliban and return to his homeland. We can only applaud this soldier for putting his life on the line for the good of others.

Dakota and his unit can be found in the Kunar Province of Afghanistan if we go back to September 2009. At this point, the war with the Taliban had been going on for a long time, and US forces were stationed in many key areas of Afghanistan. Dakota’s unit had set out on foot, accompanied by some soldiers from the Afghan National Army, to protect anti-Taliban elderly people in Ganjgal.
