Genuine Hero
Honor is due Private Johnson Beharry. He has received the Victoria Cross for actions in Iraq. From the citation
Private Beharry carried out two individual acts of great heroism by which he saved the lives of his comrades.Given the events of the past week, it is especially important to honor the bravery of our allies.
Both were in direct face of the enemy, under intense fire, at great personal risk to himself (one leading to him sustaining very serious injuries).
