JPL Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Staff Sgt. Dale C. Young, Tech Sgt. Ismael Villegas both receive special decoration for efforts in combat. "It's an honor (and) it's surreal," said Staff Sgt. Dale C. Young, a Silver Star-awardee. "You look at guys who have been through this before. I've always seen those before me up on stage receiving medals, and you definitely look up to them." Young and Tech Sgt. Ismael Villegas both received the special decoration for their efforts in combat. For Villegas, receiving this medal is a familiar feeling, as he was previously awarded one a few years back.

Paul R Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 Two Silver Stars? That is amazing. I would be interested in seeing those citations. Thanks for sharing.
