Description: Retired U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Don. J. Jenkins, a Medal of Honor winner, talks to the attendees of the Medal of Honor Dining In hosted by the U.S. Air Force's 380th Air Expeditionary Wing (AEW) at an undisclosed base in Southwest Asia April 12, 2010. Jenkins earned his Medal of Honor Jan. 6, 1969, when he was a private first class serving in Vietnam. His citation states that Jenkins' "extraordinary valor, dedication and indomitable spirit inspired his fellow Soldiers to repulse the determined enemy attack and ultimately defeat the larger force." Jenkins and another Medal of Honor winner, retired Army Lt. Col. Alfred V. Rascon, are visiting the 380th AEW as part of a tour with Armed Forces Entertainment. The dining in is being held in their honor.
