WASHINGTON (Feb. 28, 2018)Hershel “Woody” Williams, the last living Medal of Honor (MOH) recipient from the Battle of Iwo Jima and retired Marine Chief Warrant Officer 4, explains the value of the MOH and what it means to him at the Marine Barracks in Washington D.C. Marines met with Williams at Center House for a meet and greet and were afforded the opportunity to listen to stories shared from their fellow Marine. Williams received the Medal of Honor for his “valiant devotion to duty” and service above self as he “enabled his company to reach its objective” on the island of Iwo Jima during World War II.
