The 65th Infantry known as the Borinqueneers was a segregated military unit of Puerto Rican soldiers. Its time for Congress to honor these brave men and women with a Congressional Gold Medical. This units members have earned 10 Distinguished Service Crosses, 258 Silver Stars, 628 Bronze Stars, and over 2700 Purple Hearts. Finally Congress voted that this unit of distinguished Latino soldiers should receive the Congressional Gold Medal. It now awaits for the signature of President Obama to make this bill a law. On this Memorial Day we honor you. Your country will soon do the same.
