Medal of Honor

When terrorists attacked America, WSU alumnus Ron Shurer traded graduate school for the Green Berets, earning the Medal of Honor and the gratitude of a nation.

The nation’s highest military recognition for valor was bestowed Monday on WSU alumnus and former U.S. Army medic Ronald Shurer.

Ronald J. Shurer II, a former U.S. Army medic and a WSU alumnus, will receive the Medal of Honor at the White House.
