S. military decoration, from the Civil War through the Vietnam War, and examines what drove them to go so far above and beyond the call of duty.

Medal of Honor portrays 11 recipients of this sacred U.S. military decoration, from the Civil War through the Vietnam War, and examines what drove them to go so far above and beyond the call of duty. Among the stories is an account of the life of the only woman ever to receive the medal; of an officer who staged a daring escape from a German POW camp in WWI; and of a soldier from the legendary WWII Japanese-American 442nd, who went on to earn the medal in the Korean War. The book tells not only of astonishing military actions but also, significantly, of the recipients' lives before and after their wartime experiences.

In his moving commentary, acclaimed 60 Minutes reporter Mike Wallace places these actions in historical context and relates his own personal experiences in WWII and as a journalist covering recent wars. He also meditates on the meaning of courage and shows what we can all learn from these extraordinary individuals.

"The President may award, and present in the name of Congress, a medal of honor of appropriate design, with ribbons and appurtenances, to a person who, while a member of the Army, Navy, or Air Force distinguished himself conspicuously by gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty." --The United States Congress

Simple install
Style: 5th Wheel Stabilizer Tripod Jack, Pattern Name: Stabilizer
Simple intsall, easily adjustable to diffrent hights, feet have a nice base so they don't sink, but can be placed on pads, helps with stability. Quality seems to be good. Nice weight not cheap and flimsy, durable enough to do the job, but not so heavy you need two people to move it.

Sturdy, Reliable, and Worth Every Penny!
Style: 5th Wheel Stabilizer Tripod Jack, Pattern Name: Stabilizer, Style: 5th Wheel Stabilizer Tripod Jack, Pattern Name: Stabilizer
This stabilizing tripod is very sturdy, well built, and performs exactly as expected. It arrived on time and in perfect condition. The difference it makes in 40+ kmh winds and 60 kmh gusts is remarkable, providing excellent stability and reducing movement significantly. I’m extremely satisfied with this purchase!
