U. S. Air Force 1st Lt. Roslyn L. Schulte?s citation was presented posthumously to her supervisor Lt. Col. Christopher Sartorius from the 613th Air and Space Operations Center, by the Hawaii Legislature, at the State Capitol, Hawaii, March 23, 2010. Lt. Col. Sartorius accepted the medal and citation on behalf of 1st Lt. Schulte and her family.  She was among 28 fallen service members being awarded the Hawaii Medal of Honor during a special ceremony. The Hawaii Medal of Honor was created in 2005 to recognize the heroism of those members of the U.S. armed forces with links to Hawaii who are killed in action while serving our country as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom in Iraq and Afghanistan. The presentation of the Hawaii Medal of Honor was the first of its kind in the nation, and has become the model for similar ceremonies in other states. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Jerome S.
