COMMENTARY: Medal of Honor for Sgt. Burgess is long overdue

Fifty years ago, on April 18, 1969, a Cherokee hero gave his life in the service of his country.  The late Sgt. John Decator Burgess, a proud member of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI), was killed in action while on a combat mission with the 9th Infantry Division in the Quang Tri Province in Vietnam.
