Medal of Honor Video

At the annual Regional Office of Education 02 Fall Institute, a short film was shown about the Congressional Medal of Honor.  This film is to be shown to all 7th graders and high school students.  The law requiring this is quoted below:

105 ILCS 5/27‑3.5)
Sec. 27‑3.5. Congressional Medal of Honor film. Each school district shall require that all students in grade 7 and all high school students enrolled in a course concerning history of the United States or a combination of history of the United States and American government view a Congressional Medal of Honor film made by the Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation. This requirement does not apply if the Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation charges the school district a fee for a film.  (Source: P.A. 96‑99, eff. 7‑27‑09.)
