Staff Sergeant Clinton Romesha grew up in a family strongly committed to military service, which would inspire him to follow his family's legacy and leading him to become one of his generation's great heroes. In September 1999 Romesha enlisted in the U.S. Army, and after being deployed to Germany, Kosovo, and South Korea, he volunteered to serve in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Here he served as section leader of Bravo troop until his unit was deployed to Afghanistan for Operation Enduring Freedom. Romesha and his comrades were assigned to Combat Outpost Keating, where he would see heavy action in the Battle of Kamdesh. It was there that his demonstration of valor would later result in his being awarded the Medal of Honor.
