Must respect for him or any man deemed worthy of that medal. He faced the ultimate test a man can face and passed with honor~

Daniel Inouye was the President Pro Tempore of the Senate, which of late has been given to the senior member of the majority party. As such he was 3rd in succession to the Presidency.

A Medal of Honor winner and a part of the greatest generation lost. You may disagreed with his politics but before politics he had some big ass balls on him. The courage was strong in this man.
