"The presidency and vice presidency may be the highest offices in the land, but there's an even greater distinction that our country bestows, the Congressional Medal of Honor."
Vice President Dick Cheney
Inaugural Salute, January 2001

One of the youngest surviving recipients of our nation's highest award, the Congressional Medal of Honor, Peter C. Lemon is among the most dynamic and moving professional public speakers of our time. President Jimmy Carter has honored him with the Certificate of Outstanding Achievement for his community efforts and he is the Humanitarian Alumni of the Year at his graduate alma mater. Mr. Lemon is also an inductee in the elite Ranger Hall of Fame.

A successful entrepreneur for three decades, Mr. Lemon has owned many businesses to include the national insurance organization American Hospitality Association, and the commercial contracting firm Darnell-Lemon, Inc. Currently he is the president and owner of Lemco Enterprises, Inc. where he is a speaker, author and film executive producer.

Acclaimed author of Beyond the Medal, Mr. Lemon has been praised by Secretary Colin Powell, Elizabeth Dole, Senator John McCain and President Ford. Recently his book was donated to the 32,000 middle, junior and high schools in the United States.

The Million Dollar Man, as named in the Michigan State Senate for his riveting presentation, has appeared on numerous national television programs.

Mr. Lemon has shared the same platform with such distinguished Americans as Senator Bob Dole, Paul Harvey, Arnold Palmer, and Bob Hope, and participated in events with many celebrities, athletes, governors and presidents.

National dignitary Peter C. Lemon delivers a human testament that profoundly enriches the lives of others. His passion for life is contagious. He brings out the best in all of us: The Hero Within!

"True Heroism Is Not A Matter Of Chance, It's A Matter Of Choice."
- Peter C. Lemon
