U.S. Army Gen. Daniel R. Hokanson, Chief of the National Guard Bureau, addresses troops, visitors, and state officials during the Fort Johnson redesignation ceremony at Warrior Field, Fort Johnson, Louisiana, June 13, 2023. Fort Johnson became the official name of the Army installation formerly known as Fort Polk, and was renamed after New York National Guardsman Sgt. Henry Johnson, a World War I hero. Johnson was awarded the French Croix De Guerre for his actions during WWI, making him the first American recognized by the French military, and he was posthumously awarded the Purple Heart in 1996, the Distinguished Service Cross in 2002, and the Congressional Medal of Honor in 2015.
