I think he and Mitchell Paige (and maybe even another one or two) received the award at the same ceremony.
I got to meet Paige a few years before his death..his wife and my mother were great DAR buddies, and I got invited to their home for a visit - where he autographed the Paige G.I. Joe and his book for me -- both highly treasured now.
Thanks for the link.
