DESCENDANTS
OF
HONOR

1 in 5 Medal of Honor recipients were foreign born.

With the tensions on the Mexico border, we used the Ancestry’s Veteran’s Day media buy to start an honest conversation about what does it really mean to be an American.

  • "He wasn't born in America,
  • but he is a part of American history forever."

Tina, the granddaughter of Mexican born MOH recipient

ECOMM

The dedicated website offered interviews with the descendants for a deeper dive into the stories of the featured foreign born Medal Of Honor recipients, as well as inspire people to research and share their own stories.
