 Medal of Honor
I'm humbled as we all should be.


Forty-eight years after surviving 18 wounds during a bloody battle in the A Shau Valley of South Vietnam, retired Command Sgt. Maj. Bennie G. Adkins will receive the Medal of Honor at the White House on Sept. 15.

President Barack Obama will present the nation's highest military honor to the Opelika, Alabama man, who distinguished himself during 38 hours of close-combat fighting and two days of evading the North Vietnamese Army March 9-12, 1966.
