He Deserves the Medal of Honor

This is Lt. Roger E. Smith. Killed in action during world war II…

I was tasked with telling his story a few years ago and I was STUNNED that his heroic actions did not earn him the MEDAL OF HONOR…

I may have bit off more than I could chew but I promised his remaining family that I would do EVERYTHING I could to see to it that he got this MEDAL OF HONOR posthumously,,,

So far…
My attempts have fallen on deaf ears …
Then the pandemic hit…
And now I’m here to ask for YOUR help…

Please feel free to read the next story below this titled “Our Cross: A reminder of Memorial Day”…
I promise it will leave you thinking WHY DOESN”T HE DESERVE IT???

I ask you to contact Senator Marsha Blackburn and plead our case for this to be given a consideration…

Here is Senator Blackburn’s local contact info:
