Nice gesture with the medal, now let's hope it doesn't just end up in a dusty museum corner.

A gold medal is a wonderful tribute, but could we also use this momentum to support veterans today?

Honor them with medals, but let's not forget to honor today's volunteers with a living wage.

It's great to celebrate history, but funding social programs might be a more impactful way to recognize community spirit.

How about we give medals out for every act of American patriotism?

Sure, a gold medal is nice, but how about funding for a real WWII history education program?
