they were centuries at an isolated outpost when they were attacked by at least a dozen germans. >> so during that fight while johnson runs out of bullets, he's throwing grenades, he's using his rifle as a club, and he ends up using his bolo knife. he also prevents germ nans from dragging his dpud buddy, needham roberts away. >> johnson and roberts would become the first american soldiers of any race to receive the croix de guerre, one of france's highest awards for valor. >> that was the night that the bravery, the patriotism and the service of what african americans were capable of and willing to do for their country became known throughout the world. >> more than 150 other hell fighters were given the croix de guerre, including lawrence mcvey senior. >> this one is his military uniform. >> he looks so proud.

[ applause ] >> it's just amazing that all of the things that the african american community has done with

the weight of not being good enough on their back, they didn't let that stop them. they went ahead and they fought for what they thought was right. >> what's great about her story is that she was just thanking a veteran for his service and she got so much more. and it was a white veteran. >> yeah. >> which goes to the pointed, i want to give a shout out to colonel william heyward. he was the officer over the 369ening, this all black unit. he gave them respect, he gave them honor. and what he did was bring attention to them. he's one of the reasons why they were able to get that parade up to harlem. >> wow. >> and why many people believe the croix de guerre was bestowed upon them. >> i love what gina mcvey said when that man said do you know what you have? you have history. that was great. if you meet a celebrity, chances are you'll remember them for a long time. ahead, how a tv game show contestant recounted her metering with the host many years ago. and if you're heading out

i think first is the high cost of the child care. the average child care cost in the u.s. rapgs around 8,000 to $10,000, which is a significant percentage of many take home earnings. >> right. >> so that continues to be one. second is inflexible work arrangements ninkt many companies award inoffice work culture which can be particularly punishing to work families. and the third say lack of poll stois support working families in the u.s., particularly our lack of national paid parental leave. >> which is a global issue. one of the few countries in the western world that don't have policies to support parents, particularly in the early years of life.

and then also support child care. as you match families with companies that might support the lifestyle they want to lead as parents, it's being called a lifestyle, what are some of the policies you're looking for in companies that support parents? >> certainly benefits. companies that offer child care subsidies that can help alleviate that burden is really important. family leave is very important. fertility benefits, maternal health benefits are all really very important. i would say the most important thing is really respect. we find so many users on our platform just don't feel respected at work. so we're really looking for the companies that we work where are that we partner with to really respect the individuals that they're bringing in the workforce and don't just talk about diversity and inclusion but live those values every day. >> that's so important because it's not just policies that companies have that can really help women balance work and life, but it's those subtle things like respect. women feeling valued even if they may not have as much time as they used to.

what a great trip they had the. but they were lamenting the fact that they never had a new york city hot dog. and so i ran out to the hot dog cart in front of the restaurant, bought a hot dog and brought it back to him in the kitchen and i said, daniel, can we serve this to them as their next course? >> your response was what? >> i'd be like -- >> understandably so. you know, these dishes were about to have, it takes three days to produce some of these. but he trusted me enough to know that there was probably a good reason for it. so he cut the hot dog in perfect pieces, did a swish of mustard and a swish of cech chel and a sawyer kraut and we brought it to them and said we wanted to make sure you didn't miss out on that it's the beauty of what we get to do when you see the looks on someone's face when you do that. >> it is that kind of service along with humm's krafrtsmanship in the kich than has made madison park a destination. >> that's our signature recipe.

juicy almost. and she looked at me and she's like, this is why. and that's a lesson that i never algorithm. >> when forgot. >> when he was just 14 years old, he left home to pursue a cycling career and got a job in a kitchen to make extra money. >> i was a prep cook but i had an amazing chef. he said i know you're here for a paycheck but let me show you how to make chicken, soup, how to make a sue play, aouffle all th. in the begin weighing was like, it's okay. he said no, i'm going to teach you. >> a serious cycling department when he was 22 made him reevaluate his career path. he reembraced his love of food. when he got an opportunity to interview at camden place in san

francisco, did you hesitate? >> for sure. at that point i did not speak english. i'd never been outside of europe. all i knew at that point about america was definitely not the food that i thought myself as a chef doing. >> what was the food that you knew? i'm afraid to ask. >> you know, i was open enough to come for an interview and then i was in san francisco and i was brought around to the markets and the city and napa valley and my mind was blown away. >> humm was wooed to 11 madison park by legendary restaurantor danny mire. in 2010 the pair were invite told awards for the 50 best restaurants in the world. >> we barely sat down, the list starts, and they said and number 50 in the world, new entry from america, 11 madison park.

gorgeous movie. >> i'm sold. i'm sold on that one. >> it's beautiful. >> number four, sequel doesn't always happen, missing impossible fallout. >> i like this one. >> how many franchises are still getting better after six movies and 22 years. >> yeah. >> but mission impossible, i think, the think the last one was the best one. i don't know how tom cruise is going to top this one where he learned how to be a helicopter pilot do his own helicopter chase stunts. he's going to have to train to be an astronaut and then go to the international space station which he might do. >> i was going to skbla that's what what's great about these movies, anything is possible. >> top three in your third favorite is a sci-fi hor row film annihilation. >> i think it this is the one i thought about the most afterwards. you have natalie portman as a scientist. she goes into this weird place called the shimmer to try to figure out what's happening in there. and the stuff she finds is some

of like the most horrifying nightmarish imaginary i have seen in a movie in a long time. i've had actual nightmares about this movie, so how's that for a selling point. annihilation, it will traumatize you and haunt your dreams. >> jaws did that for a lot of people. >> that did. >> first runner up on your list is? >> private life in the say netflix movie. that's one of the big stories of the year for moveries vis is netflix. they used to be this place for a lot of junk, frankly. and now they have all these fascinating wonderful movies like this one which is about a subject a lot of people, include my own family deal with and they don't talk about which is infertility. this couple are desperate to get pregnant and they can't do it. i can tell you from experience this movie is so painfully accurate and honest that no one else would have made it but netflix did. and they deserve credit for that gray great cast. >> how about the faif reit. >> maybe this is my favourite because i love the bad pun of

saying "the favourite" is my favorite. this is a period piece about basically how government works and how everyone in it is selfish and dumb, some of them. so it has no relevance whatsoever to the world of 2018. it has amazing performances, olivia colman, emma stone, rachel weisz, they're all sort of fighting for control. i loved it. >> what are you looking forward to next year? >> number one right now has to be us. that's the next film from jordan peele. we just got trailer for it. if you loved get out, it looks very similar. sort of a horror film with social commentary in there. it looks terrific. >> it's like you said, with casts anything. matt singer thank you so much. movies to look to or movies you're on board with already. now here's a look at the weather for your weekend.

at booking.com, we can't guarantee you'll good at that water jet thingy... but we can guarantee the best price on this hotel. or any accommodation, from homes to yurts. booking.com booking.yeah
