      Chief Warrant Officer Eric Slover already proved his mettle in the skies over Afghanistan, receiving the Distinguished Flying Cross for actions during a rescue mission that turned into an intense firefight.
      In January 2026, his proven abilities were required once again, this time over Caracas, as part of Operation Absolute Resolve, the daring raid to capture dictator Nicolas Maduro.
      Slover planned the mission and was at the controls of the lead aircraft, an MH-47 Chinook. He was tasked with inserting a Delta Force assault team into the heavily fortified compound where Maduro was believed to be hiding. There was no margin for error, and no room for hesitation.

      As his helicopter approached the target area, Venezuelan defense systems opened fire, and Slover was struck three times in the leg. The Chinook was also hit, but still flyable.
      So he kept flying.

      "The success of the entire mission and the lives of his fellow warriors hinged on Eric's ability to take searing pain," President Donald Trump said during his 2026 State of the Union address. He then surprised Slover and his wife, Amy, with the nation's highest military honor before a joint session of Congress.
      The chamber erupted in applause.
