Ok then, Ernest August Janson. My trivia: He is one of only 7 Marines to hold two Medals of Honor. For 5 of those, they were given the Army and Navy version for the same action (the Army couldn't let the Navy out do them [or vice versa] could they? Those Marines were attached to an Army command at the time in WWI.) Two of them, Smedley Butler and Dan Daly are the only two Marines to have gotten the award for two seperate actions. Their two names are learned by every Marine as they go through their basic training.
SgtMaj Dan Daly. . . . . . . MGen Smedly Butler
