Bob Kerrey

Kerrey, a former governor and senator from Nebraska, received the Medal of Honor for his service during the Vietnam War. On the night of March 14, 1969, Kerrey, a Navy SEAL, led his unit on a daring, pre-dawn operation to capture key Viet Cong political cadres. They were meeting on an island off the coast of Vietnam that was considered virtually unassailable. Lieutenant Kerrey and his unit scaled a 350-foot sheer cliff, taking the enemy by surprise. Kerrey was severely wounded in the ensuing firefight by an enemy grenade that cost him part of his leg. He continued to direct his men in the battle and extraction. The captured prisoners provided key intelligence for the United States. Kerrey was born in Lincoln, Nebraska, and resides in New York City.
