Description
English: U.S. Army Central soldiers join Lt. Col. Thomas J. Verell Jr., Headquarters and Headquarters Battalion commander (left) and Brig. Gen. David Coburn, director of resource management (right) during an induction ceremony at Patton Hall, Wednesday, to honor the memory of Staff Sgt. Ruben Rivers, a Third Army Medal of Honor recipient and one of only seven African-American soldiers to receive this prestigious award. Rivers served with Third Army, now known as U.S. Army Central, during World War II. He was killed Nov. 19, 1944, while directing barrage on German anti-tank guns, allowing his trapped comrades to escape alive. Rivers was awarded the Medal of Honor by former President Bill Clinton on Jan. 13, 1997. (Photo by Sgt. Sharmain Burch USARCENT Public Affairs)
