The highest ranking African-American to ever receive the Medal of Honor.On Nov. 2, 1968, The North Vietnamese Army attacked Lt. Col. Charles Calvin Rogers’ base camp with heavy mortars, rocket propelled grenade fire.Battle hardened NVA soldiers breached the defensive barriers. As the NVA charged, Lt. Col. Rogers grabbed his helmet & rifle and raced up to the frontline positions. He organized his battalion to return fire despite being severely injured.He led a mid-night assault to regain the units positions. The NVA retreated. A 2nd wave of attacks began. Rogers led a counter-attack to defended the base and his men. A 3rd assault began. Despite heavy bleeding, Rogers re-stocked his men for final battle.A mortar explosion left him unable to stand, but, he kept going. The line held.This moment of heroism doesn’t reflect the racism he faced as he rose thru the ranks.But, it does depict one brave & selfless soldier. The highest ranking African American to ever receive the Medal of Honor. Not a film, a play or a book was undertaken to honor our Black American hero.

Men,

Don't travel to find Women. Travel to find adventure, to see the sights, learn new cultures, eat new foods, explore new languages.

Women will show up.
