WASHINGTON, Oct. 28 -- The U.S. Department of Defense issued the following news:
Army Staff Sgt. Lucian Adams was one of few men to receive the Medal of Honor in Germany as the Nazi regime crumbled in the last days of World War II. Just months before, Adams singlehandedly took out three machine gun nests and several enemy soldiers while working to reopen supply lines in France. His actions earned him the nation's highest honor for valor and a front-row seat to the war's end.
