Requiescat in Pace Hershel “Woody” Williams

Today also marks the passage into eternity of the last Medal of Honor recipient from World War II. I never met him, but he remained very active in the American Legion for a long time. Other Legionnaires describe him as one of the kindest and most respected members of the organization. 

He received the Medal of Honor for actions on Iwo Jima, described at the link.
