Drew Dix

Dix was awarded the Medal of Honor for his service during the Vietnam War. At the end of January 1968, in a fierce, 56-hour battle during the Tet Offensive, Army Special Forces Staff Sergeant Dix continually risked his life to rescue civilians, including an American nurse, trapped civilian volunteers and family members of a South Vietnamese commander. He then repelled an enemy force, capturing 20 prisoners, including the highest-ranking North Vietnamese general officer ever seized. Dix was the first Medal of Honor recipient of the Vietnam War and the first Green Beret to receive such recognition. Dix was born in West Point, New York, and resides in Mimbres, New Mexico.
