KX News: Bismarck veteran receives national recognition

A Bismarck man is receiving national attention for his acts of valor.

Robert Olzweski was chosen to represent North Dakota as an honoree of the Purple Heart Patriot Project.

In April, Purple Heart recipients across the country will convene at West Point Military Academy to receive recognition for their sacrifices. Olzweski says he got the call to attend the event after sending his story to the National Purple Heart Honor Mission.
