Description: MEDAL OF HONOR RECIPIENTS "UNDER A MOST GALLING FIRE" -By Howard Peterson - FACTUAL REPRESENTATION NOT RETREAD HISTORY -Folks, Here is a most intriguing story entitled “Under A Most Galling Fire,” by Howard Peterson with rare history of the Medal of Honor with history of some of the Medals our Government has given out along with history of the Medal.

OLD MEDAL OF HONOR MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING Please read this. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on eBay every day but the rarer ones about the Heroes of the old west like this one are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest. Here’s one of ‘em. Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western pioneers. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be included in this offering at no additional cost. We are trying to keep history alive. Hope you appreciate the effort. "UNDER A MOST GALLING FIRE " -By Howard Peterson - Folks, sooner or later, Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are laying on some dealer's dusty shelves. If we can contribute to finding one little name or photo of that long lost ancestor you have been waiting to find, it's worth all the time we spend. As a tribute to the honor of our American Ancestors, Forefathers, Soldiers, and our Native American Indians, our indexed listings will include all names mentioned in the story from this time on.
