Description
English: U.S. President George W. Bush presents the Medal of Honor to the family of Corporal Jason Dunham of the Marine Corps during a ceremony in the East Room Thursday, January 11, 2007. The President spoke of Cpl. Dunham, "In April 2004, during an attack near Iraq's Syrian border, Corporal Dunham was assaulted by an insurgent who jumped out of a vehicle that was about to be searched. As Corporal Dunham wrestled the man to the ground, the insurgent rolled out a grenade he had been hiding. Corporal Dunham did not hesitate. He jumped on the grenade, using his helmet and body to absorb the blast. Although he survived the initial explosion, he did not survive his wounds. But by his selflessness, Corporal Dunham saved the lives of two of his men, and showed the world what it means to be a Marine."
