The mother of Medal of Honor recipient Sergeant 1st Class Jared Monti
recalls the outpouring of support for her son.
I got letters, cards, emails from people all over the country that I don't even know.
And it just proves that they really do care, that they respect what he did,
they honor what he did, that he was willing to give up his life to save another.
It made me feel very proud of him.
I think they're all heroes.
And he would think so, too.
Like I said before, that medal is for all of them.
That's how I feel, too.
For all of them.
