Did anyone see the presentations this afternoon? It was really interesting, and over in less than an hour.
Here (http://www.whitehouse.gov/the_press_office/President-Obama-Names-Medal-of-Freedom-Recipients/) is a link to a short description of the 16 recipients. I especially liked this about Joe Medicine Crow – High Bird,
He is the last person alive to have received direct oral testimony from a participant in the Battle of the Little Bighorn: his grandfather was a scout for General George Armstrong Custer.
