"Ladies and gentlemen, on 22 July 2014, I had the greatest honor and privilege to participate in two events-meeting Mr. Andrew M. Barr and attending the Medal of Honor Reception in honor of Staff Sergeant Ryan Pitts. Both of these events were incredible and had a profound impact on me. Although Mr. Barr and Staff Sergeant Pitts are separated by 58 years and served in different wars, on vastly different terrain, and in different theaters, their stories are very similar. Their actions were very heroic-and both were ordinary people who acted in an extraordinary manner. The article below highlights Mr. Barr's career and our visit with him to present him with his Chemical Corps Hall of Fame plaque."
