Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

This bill authorizes the President to award the Medal of Honor to Sergeant Rafael Peralta of the United States Marine Corps for acts of valor during the Second Battle of Fallujah on November 15, 2004. According to the bill's findings, Sergeant Peralta was mortally wounded in combat and then deliberately pulled an enemy grenade beneath his body to shield nearby Marines from the blast. The bill waives statutory time limitations that would otherwise prevent the Medal of Honor from being awarded for actions that occurred more than two years prior.
