Yep!!I knew a guy who received the MOH for his actions in Korea. I got to talking to him playing golf one time and finally got up the nerve to ask him about it. He said he didn't like that he received it. Said he was no different or any more special than any of the other guys he served with. He said he hated the way people treated him special and the recognition he received all the time. Said a big component of it was that he felt guilty that he made it back and a lot of his guys didn't. I remember being really floored by his response. I've since seen interviews with other recipients of the award say similar things. Pretty humble guys.
