America's Hero's


Bree and I had the Honor of photographing Oregon's All Military Gala 2008! The amazing part of this event was that there were 6 Medal of Honor Recipients in attendants! Now Bree and I really didn't understand the depth of importance of the "Medal of Honor" until after Bill saw the pictures and about crapped his pants and then explained to me, it's the Highest Award you can receive in any branch of military, and most are awarded posthumously.
After the event Bree has googled these guys and it Brings you to Tears!! WOW! I'm feeling like I wish I could go back and give these guys a HUG!
