MOH recipient Vernon Baker passes away.

Medal Of Honor recipient Vernon Baker passed away today at age 90. Lt. Baker was one of the soldiers whose actions were reviewed in the 90's and whose original award, the DSC, was upgraded to the MOH. He was the only one of the group of soldiers who was still living.

RIP Lt. Baker. Thank you for your service and for the example you have left for all Americans!
