If you read what he did to receive the MOH, you will be amazed. He was wounded 18 different times during the battle. https://www.army.mil/medalofhonor/adkins/ | ||

Shows what can change in a guy who was drafted into the service and upon completion of his basic training was assigned as a typist!!!  He had an incredible career besides his all too late recognition with the MOH, was a husband for at least 59 years and father of five children. What a life! Thank you for your service and rest in peace. "I'm not fluent in the language of violence, but I know enough to get around in places where it's spoken." | |||

War Damn Eagle! |
4 year ago he was honored, among other Veterans, at an Auburn Football game. At the time, he was in a electric wheelchair. When they started playing the National Anthem, he stood up as best he could. Not gonna lie, I got a little misty-eyed. I think I have a picture somewhere... | |||
