"Leave No One Behind"
by
Joe Kline
15 January 1969 - Pleiku Province, the Republic of Vietnam.
Blue Platoon troopers of 'C' Troop, 7th Squadron, 17th Cavalry Regiment,
secure the crash site of a downed AH-1G Cobra Gunship. Ambushed
by North Vietnamese regulars after retrieving the bodies of the two
dead crewmembers, the men of 'C' Troop stubbornly held their ground.
During the engagement, PFC Garfield Langhorn saved the lives of his
fellow soldiers by thrusting himself on an enemy grenade. For
his selfless sacrifice, he was posthumously awarded the Congressional
Medal of Honor.
