STEP 5: Select UP TO EIGHT medals that this person has earned from the selection below. The drop-down list box at the left is for counting so you can keep track. If this person received more than eight awards, you will have to determine which 8 to display, as the page width limits the number of selections. IT IS A CRIME to claim medals one has not earned, so be HONEST. Because we are very careful to insure that the integrity of the Medal of Honor is always maintained, there is NO option to insert a Medal of Honor graphic. If you are doing a page for a Medal of Honor recipient, e-mail the webmaster when you have completed the page and I will insert the Medal of Honor for you after checking the identity of your tribute individual against the Roll Of Honor.
