Navy Cdr. George Navas, who helped evacuate people during the Sept. 11 terrorist attack on the Pentagon, holds an extinguished Olympic torch following a Dec. 21, 2001, ceremony at the Pentagon honoring the heroes and 184 victims of the attack. The commander said he'd gladly give back the Meritorious Service Medal he received from the Navy secretary for his actions that day if he could only have his colleagues back.
