Watch this short You-Tube Video on US Army Special Forces "Green Beret" Master Sgt Roy P Benevidez and how this Mean Mexican Earned the Congressional Medal of Honor.Some of the Interviews and Articles that I have read over the Years say even all of this doesn't do credit for this guys Heroism.
You may have to cut and paste the link but it is worth watching.

Know this, there were thousands in that war who were just as brave, thousands who clawed through bullets and dirt to save comrades, thousands who not only have never been officially recognized by our government, but are having to fight for government medical care.
We, as a country, should never ever forget our service personnel, whether they served in a war zone or not, because they chose to take the chance that they could have - all in the name of keeping the free walking in freedom.
God bless them all, and their loved ones for they go through their own hells here at home.
