On his 96th birthday, Oregon’s only living Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, Robert "Bob" Maxwell, helped unveil the signage indicating U.S. 20 as the new Medal of Honor Highway across the state. He was joined by Oregon Governor Kate Brown and Lt. Col. (ret.) Dick Tobiason, Chairman of the Bend Heroes Foundation, along with other celebrating the event, held in Bend, Oregon, on Oct. 26, 2017. The Bend Heroes Foundation hopes to eventually connect all 12 states along U.S. Route 20 from coast to coast as one National Medal of Highway designation.
