RIP Capt. Smith. You honored us and a grateful Nation with your service and sacrifice.

Capt. Smith was not a MOH recipient. He and other Tuskegee Airmen were awarded The Congressional Gold Medal on 2007. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross among others, and was a POW.

( Mods, maybe we can move this to another forum. Papa Smurf, thanks for posting this. We all need to hear the stories of such men as this.)
