This week our special guest is Paul 'Bud' Bucha. Mr Bucha was a two time All-American swimmer. After graduating from West Point, he was commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Army. In Phuoc Vinh, Vietnam, Captain Bucha of the 3rd battalion, 187th Infantry, 3rd Brigade 101st Airborne Division led a recon patrol that encountered strong resistance. He was awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions between March 16-19, 1968.He later taught at West Point and became president of the Congressional Medal of Honor Society. Most recently he served as a foreign policy adviser to Barack Obama's 2008 successful presidential campaign. We will also have three other very special guests. One is another blogger from the VAMC You Served blog, Claire who writes about life of a military spouse - the hardships, the joys, and everything in between. Kat from Operation Love from Home will be giving us an update on the Christmas Card Drive that she held in Oct and Nov. Last but not least, we will have on Kim Cameron who is a singer/songwriter who recently released a song dedicated to America's Military. It is titled "My Hero" and you can watch Kim sing it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FB5DhRI-YbY.
