Remembering those who sacrificed for our freedom and way of life
Cpl Bud Thorne
An American Hero is a short biography of Cpl. Horace Marvin “Bud” Thorne, a Congressional Medal of Honor recipient who made the ultimate sacrifice during the Battle of the Bulge– Germany’s last major offensive in its western theater in World War II.
The video was produced for the 50th Anniversary of Thorne Middle School in Middletown and for a reunion of Battle of the Bulge survivors which took place at the school.
Every American hero who have given their lives has a story like Bud’s. Today we honor their sacrifice and celebrate the great nation they made possible.
