Peter Charles Lemon (born June 5, 1950) is a former United States Army soldier and a recipient of the U.S. military’s highest award, the Medal of Honor. He received the award for his actions on April 1, 1970, while serving in Tây Ninh Province during the Vietnam War. He dedicates the Medal of Honor to the three comrades he lost in the battle which he received the award for: Casey Waller, Nathan Mann and Brent Street. Lemon is the only Canadian-born U.S. citizen to be presented the medal for fighting in the Vietnam War. He is the eighth-youngest living Medal of Honor recipient. Lemon was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. After his U.S. Army service, he entered Colorado State University, graduating in 1979 with a degree in Speech. He received his Masters of Arts in Business Administration from the University of Northern Colorado two years later, and in 1998 he was proclaimed UNC’s ‘Humanitarian Alumni of the Year.’
