HARTSOCK: CONGRESSIONAL MEDIAL OF HONOR WINNERS
On Memorial Day
Month, we recall 3 of our veterans who won the Congressional Medal of Honor in
the 2nd World and Vietnam War. They were all inducted in Fairmont at
the former Recruiting Station on Gaston Ave. 159 pictures and 81 video clips are
used to tell the story. Quiet Dell resident Herschel “Woody” Williams is seen as
he discusses his life and award at East Fairmont High School, on the History
Channel, and on a special WV PBS program on “West Virginians at War.” Tom
Bennett’s life is narrated by D.D. Meighen, who worked for seven years at the
Bennett House, the ecumenical campus ministry center at West Virginia University
named in his honor. Bennett was killed in Vietnam on Feb. 9, 1969 and was
awarded posthumorously the Medal of Honor. He became only the second person EVER
to receive this award as a conscientious objector. His objection to war was well stated, but his
desire to serve his country led him to enlist as a medic. A dorm at WVU, a
bridge leading into Morgantown, the campus ministry facility at WVU, and a youth
center at a military base in Hawaii is named for him. The third inductee is
Staff Sgt. Robert W. Hartsock of Cumberland, Maryland. He was killed in Vietnam
Feb. 23, 1969. In addition, portions of a military funeral for Frank Fleming,
Jr. at the Grafton National Cemetery, is viewed. A 1984 video of a slideshow
done by children and youth at a summer camp studying peace and justice is also
seen. A portion of a concert by Vocal Tapestry in 2009 featuring a salute to the
various military branches is featured. Military pictures around Fairmont taken
by Creed Holden are interspersed. Our
thanks to West Virginia PBS “West Virginians At War” (shown in 1994), the Take a
Veteran to School Video, and portions of the Vietnam War on You Tube for use in
this documentary. Our thanks to pictures used of Tom Bennett from the book
“Peaceful Patriot” by Bonni McKeown. Thanks also to Robert Miller, uncle of Tom
Bennett, for his faithfulness in preserving the history. DD Meighen produced,
edited, and narrates this documentary.
