BETHESDA, Md. (March 24, 2023) – Walter Reed National Military Medical Center (WRNMMC) joins the nation in commemorating Medal of Honor Day 2023, a day set aside to honor the courageous men and women who have received the nation's highest military honor. This day is celebrated annually on March 25 to mark the anniversary of the first Medal of Honor being awarded in 1863.
The Medal of Honor is awarded to members of the U.S. armed forces who have demonstrated extraordinary acts of valor and selflessness in combat. It is a symbol of the sacrifices made by those who have served our country and a testament to the bravery and courage of our service members. We honor the sacrifices and selflessness of all Medal of Honor recipients, who have put their lives on the line to defend our freedoms and way of life.
WRNMMC would like to express our deepest gratitude to all Medal of Honor recipients and their families. We will continue to honor their legacy by providing the best possible care to our nation's wounded, ill, and injured service members. Their service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.
WRNMMC, the world’s premier, integrated military medical center and where the nation heals our heroes, strives to provide extraordinary experiences for patients, families, and staff while driving tomorrow’s healthcare advances through education, innovation, and research.
