U.S. troops help with life after 'Mitch' One man who made a differenceIn Nicaragua, a good Samaritan from the United States was honored by the army for his voluntary efforts in unearthing bodies of people killed in a massive mudslide provoked by Hurricane Mitch. Frederick Golva of Chicopee, Massachusetts, received the Fulfillment of Duty-Soldier of the Nation medal which the military bestows on soldiers and civilians whose work is distinguished by extraordinary efforts. President Arnoldo Aleman presided over the ceremony, in which more than 1,200 people were honored for their work to help victims of the hurricane. Golva, accompanied by his German shepherd Ammo, arrived in Nicaragua earlier this month to search for victims of the October 30 mudslide. The pair discovered 79 bodies.
