Summary[edit]

Description
English: PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii (Dec. 12, 2007) Following an unveiling of the fourth hole marker at the Navy/Marine Golf Course, Medal of Honor recipient Lt. John Finn (Ret.) talks to local media. The golf course features similar markers for all 15 Pearl Harbor Medal of Honor recipients. Finn received the Medal of Honor in recognition of heroism and distinguished service during the Japanese attack. As of October 2007, at age 98, Finn is the oldest living Medal of Honor recipient and is also the only living Pearl Harbor Medal of Honor recipient. A chief petty officer at the time, Finn was stationed at Naval Air Station Kaneohe Bay. During the first attack by the Japanese aircraft, Finn took control of a .50 caliber machine gun post and continued to fire on the attacking planes despite getting hit numerous times by enemy strafing fire.
