Bob Maxwell is the nation's oldest living recipient of the Medal of Honor.

He threw himself on a grenade in 1944 to save his fellow soldiers.

He refelcts on what Veterans Day is about.

"To remember all the way back to World War One, remember what they did for our country -- going to war, sending young men away from their families and careers to fight someone's war.  Now we need to honor them and make sure all fo them are taken care of."

 Maxwell is one of eight living World War Two Medal of Honor recipients still living.
