This #MedalOfHonorMonday, we salute U.S. Navy Lt. Michael E. Thornton for his incredible heroism. During an intelligence mission, Thornton and his team came under intense enemy fire.
Learning his senior officer had been critically wounded, Thornton charged back through enemy fire, eliminating threats, and carried the lieutenant to safety. He then swam with the injured officer for two hours until rescue.
Thornton's actions saved his senior officer's life and reflect the extraordinary dedication required to protect others. We salute you!

It’s a love story for the ages. #OTD in 1946, Jimmy Carter married Rosalynn Smith in Plains, Georgia. So began a marriage that spanned 77 years—the longest of any president and first lady.
