SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. — The Congressional Medal of Honor Society has presented its Patriot Award to Jack H. Brown, chairman and chief executive officer of Stater Bros. Markets here.
According to the society, the award is presented to "distinguished Americans who exemplify the ideals that make our country strong — [whose] dedication to freedom evidences no limitations; [whose] love of fellow man is not qualified; [and whose] allegiance to our flag is without reservation."
Brown received the award last Saturday at a ceremony at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library that honored 44 other award recipients.
