Senator John Hoeven today honored the service of four North Dakota veterans at a military medal presentation ceremony in Minot. Hoeven's office worked to secure the medals earned by World War II veteran John Rodman, Korean War veteran Douglas Beck, World War II veteran Arthur Heisler and World War II veteran Trygve Knutson.
"The veterans we are honoring today are part of our state's proud history of military service," said Hoeven. "These men left their homes and families to defend our nation during times of war. We can never repay them and their families for their service, but I hope these medals serve as a reminder of the nation's deep respect and sincere gratitude for their selfless service."
