🚁 Lt. Col. Bruce P. Crandall: A Medal of Honor Hero's Story 🚁
This #MedalofHonorMonday, we honor Vietnam War hero Lt. Col. Bruce P. Crandall. Crandall wasn't just a pilot; he was a guardian angel to soldiers on the ground. During a brutal fight at Landing Zone X-Ray, medical helicopters refused to land due to heavy enemy fire. Faced with this, Crandall did something extraordinary. He volunteered to fly in the wounded himself!
Imagine the courage it took to make those flights - 14 in total - under relentless gunfire. Crandall's bravery saved 70 wounded soldiers and boosted morale for the entire team. He is a true American hero.
