Retired Captain Gary Michael Rose, U.S. Army, for conspicuous gallantry during the Vietnam War.
Captain Rose will be inducted into the Hall of Heroes after receiving the Medal of Honor. He is honored for voluntarily risking his life on multiple occasions during combat operations, while serving as a medic with the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne). From September 11 through September 14, 1970, while his unit was engaged with a much larger force deep in enemy-controlled territory, then-Sergeant Rose repeatedly ran into the line of enemy fire to provide critical medical aid to his comrades, using his own body on one occasion to shield a wounded American from harm.
