Casey Keibler Does anyone out there know how to get a transcript or a video of the ceremony dinner from Saturday night? It was inspiring to say the least and I would like to have a record of some of the acceptance speeches and prayers that were given that night. Please send me a message to my facebook account if you have any leads. Thanks, Casey

2009 Chicago Commit to Courage Medal of Honor Convention Captain Harold A. Fritz, Chicago native, while serving in Vietnam, led a column of seven armored vehicles on a dirt road when twenty North Vietnamese from one side of the road attacked. Boldly, Fritz jumped into an armored vehicle and fired back with its M-60. A similar enemy force attacked from the other side and Fri...tz fought with just a pistol and a bayonet to lead his force in a charge that drove back the enemy.
