Honoring U.S. Army Master Sgt. Roy P. Benavidez

This R.E.D. Friday, we honor Master Sgt. Roy P. Benavidez of the U.S. Army Special Forces for his extraordinary gallantry in Vietnam on May 2, 1968. Armed with only a knife and medical supplies, Benavidez repeatedly exposed himself to intense enemy fire to rescue wounded soldiers and organize defenses for a surrounded team — actions that earned him the Medal of Honor.

Even today, his legacy lives on as a powerful example of courage, selflessness, and unbreakable resolve.
