No, there are no active duty Medal of Honor recipients. In the source area I provided a link to a website that lists all of the living Medal of Honor recipients for each branch of service. You can see how many from each branch recieved the award, and also there is a link on that page that you can choose which branch you want to see each of the names that are still alive. You can even see the citation for which they were put in for the award.
Edit: Yes, Jimmy and Carlos are both correct. The very few that have recieved the award in the two wars we have going on, were awarded it postumously. (After death)
But there are no living active duty Medal of Honor winner recipients. Hope this helps.
This question does not seem to be resolved. There is at least one Medal of Honor recipient still on active duty. Perhaps he is the only one. He is US Army Col. Gordon R. Roberts.

Nope,
But Gen. James T. Conway, Commandant of the US Marine Corps has ordered a review of a valor case that, if approved, would result in the first award of the Medal of Honor in the war on terrorism to a living recipient.
The Marine has not been named, all that is known, is he is at Camp Pendleton.Are there any ACTIVE DUTY military members with the Medal of Honor?
jimmy is pretty much right if your talking about the iraq/afghanistan war. they were all killed in action. which seems to be one the the things that needs to happen in order get one nowadays. im not trying to be mean or anything. i can guarentee that their are more troops out their that deserve one.
No.
the standards are so high now that if you're not straight up sacrificing your life, you're not getting a MoH
Not any that are on AD. There are 96 still living but they are from WWII, Korea, or Vietnam wars.
Not any who are alive.
