US Army Command Sergeant Major Bennie Adkins (L) salutes after being awarded the Medal of Honor by US President Barack Obama (R) during a ceremony at the White House in Washington, DC, September 15, 2014. Adkins, 80, was a sergeant first class when he survived an intense four days at Camp A Shau, fighting off waves of North Vietnamese and Viet Cong forces, rescuing fellow soldiers and evading the enemy in the jungle until a helicopter evacuation. President Obama is bestowing the Medal of Honor on Adkins and Army Spc. Donald P. Sloat, nearly half a century after they fought in Vietnam. AFP PHOTO / Jim WATSON
