An effort to honor World War I soldiers denied the Medal of Honor, possibly because of their race, is being coordinated by a small team of researchers at Park University. The review will focus on minority soldiers, including Hispanic-American and Jewish-American members, who received a Distinguished Service Cross or were at least recommended for a Medal of Honor or the French Croix de Guerre with palm.  Dr. Tim Westcott, a history professor at Park University and an 8 year yr Marine, is leading this effort.  He discusses the scope of the project, the standards being applied and the time frame with host Jim Fausone.
