The Award was first established and conveyed by General George Washington in 1782. As we approach this year’s observance, join American Family Association Assistant Digital Media Editor Dr. Robert Youngblood and Virginia War Memorial Education Director Jim Triesler for a conversation about the history of our nation’s oldest military award.
