I'm proud to introduce legislation to award the Medal of Honor to Air Force Major Robert Lodge for his courageous actions to protect the United States during the Vietnam War, even when it meant losing his own life.

Valor exists in many forms across our armed forces, and Major Lodge stands as an outstanding example of the courage found in our cockpits. I look forward to working with my colleagues in Congress, the President, Secretary Hegseth, and Secretary Meink to ensure his heroism is properly recognized.
