Bennie Adkins, now 80 and a retired command sergeant major, earned the Medal of Honor almost 50 years ago - in March 1966 - when he and 16 other Fort Bragg-based 5th Special Forces Group soldiers were manning the remote A Shau camp. His tenacity during the four-day battle and escape during the Vietnam War will receive the long-delayed medal - nations highest military recognition - at the White House today.
