A True Hero’s Autograph
Medal of Honor recipient Gary G. Wetzel signs an attendee's Medal of Honor book during a convention in Gettysburg, Pa., Thursday. Pvt. First Class Wetzel was serving in Vietnam as a door gunner on the day his helicopter was shot down and he and other survivors came under heavy enemy fire. The Medal of Honor Society annual convention gives the public an opportunity to collect autographs of the men who have been honored by Congress for risking their lives beyond the call of duty in combat.
