In this episode of Duty & Valor, we delve into the remarkable story of U.S. Air Force Colonel Joe M. Jackson, a Vietnam War hero whose quick thinking and fearless actions during a daring rescue mission saw him being awarded the Medal of Honor. On May 12, 1968, with North Vietnamese forces closing in, Col. Jackson risked his life to save a stranded combat control team, landing his C-123 Provider under intense enemy fire. Join us as we explore the details of this incredible feat of courage and learn about the man behind the mission, whose unwavering dedication to his comrades and country left an indelible mark on military history.
