| [FOX] Fifteen years after Dakota Meyer left the Marine Corps, the Medal of Honor recipient decided to put the uniform back on — becoming the first with the award to ever reenlist. Meyer was 36. He had fought in Afghanistan, struggled with the transition home from war and spent years building a life outside the military. But he said the desire to serve never went away. "Every day after I took that uniform off, that desire to serve didn't just end because my commitment to the country did," Meyer told Fox News Digital in an interview ahead of Veterans Day. Meyer rejects the idea that receiving the Medal of Honor meant he had already done enough. "I think sometimes it's looked at as you've done your part, and I am wholeheartedly against that," he said. "I believe that the only time you've done your part is when you've done all that you can." |
