Gunner’s Mate Petty Officer Third Class Tyler Simon was nominated by Trinity Palmer, who had the following to say about him: “Tyler and I met when we were both in A School in Great Lakes, IL. From the moment I’ve met him he’s had “bad luck” with his orders and anything military related. He’s received a NAM from his first deployment and Battle E, on his second deployment they also received Battle E. He has been through 2 deployments and took it like a champ. Even if he was sick through his first one. He saved his best friends life on his first deployment when he had a seizure and hit his head on the floor. Tyler put him on his side and made sure he wasn’t choking or hurting himself. He truly is my hero. There’s a lot more to say about him that I wish I could include, I don’t want to bore you. GM3 Simon is a military hero and a superhero in my mind.”
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE, TYLER!
