Stolen Medals of Honor, And The Effort To Recover Them.

Conservative Intelligence Report has requested a cross-post of this important story, and I feel obligated.

Tonight, America's most wanted will feature a despicable crime that the FBI has been unable to solve: "The Medal of Honor Heist."

From Air Force News:
The episode re-enacts the June 27, 2004, theft of seven original Medals of Honor from a display case in the museum maintained by the Congressional Medal of Honor Society.

Viewers will be asked to call the program’s anonymous hotline, 1-800-CRIME-TV, if they have tips that could help recover the medals.

The Medal of Honor exhibit is part of the Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum aboard the dry-docked aircraft carrier Yorktown near Fort Sumter, S.C. It groups the medal’s history into eight eras — the Civil War, Indian Campaigns, the wars of American expansion, peacetime, World War I and II, Korea and Vietnam. Each of the nabbed awards is inscribed with the recipient’s name. They date from the Civil War to Vietnam.

With the trail grown cold, FBI agents turned to the “Most Wanted” producers for help.

What could be more dishonorable than stealing these tokens of valor, and raping our heritage?
