Sen. Coleman speaks at ceremony honoring WW II Vet Alex Frost
On Friday, Senator Coleman congratulated World War II Veteran Alex Frost, 85, of Woodbury after presenting him with the Bronze Star on Friday at the Minnesota Capitol. Although Frost was awarded the military honor back in 1945, it took 60 years for him to actually receive the medal. β€œI was honored and humbled to present this Bronze Star to Sergeant Frost,” said Coleman. β€œHe is a real hero and deserves the honor and recognition this medal brings for his brave service and sacrifice. Our country owes him, as well as our other veterans who fought as nobly as he did, a tremendous debt of gratitude. His honor is the essence of what makes America great.”
