Honoring Staff Sergeant Michael H. Ollis posthumously upon receiving the Congressional Medal of Honor and his induction into the Hall of Heroes

AI Summary

This resolution honors Staff Sergeant Michael H. Ollis posthumously for receiving the Congressional Medal of Honor, the nation's highest award for bravery, and for his induction into the Hall of Heroes, a special room in the Pentagon dedicated to recipients of this medal. Staff Sergeant Ollis, from Staten Island, New York, sacrificed his life on August 28, 2013, in Afghanistan when he shielded a Polish allied officer from a suicide bomber, saving the lives of many others. His parents accepted the medal from President Trump and later saw his name inscribed in the Hall of Heroes and on the Medal of Honor Garden Wall, recognizing his exceptional valor and patriotism.
