COL. PARIS D. DAVIS GETS HIS DUE – MEDAL OF HONOR
In 1965 Paris D. Davis was a Captain, Commander, Detachment A-321, 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne), 1st Special Forces, distinguished himself by acts of gallantry and intrepidity above and beyond the call of duty while serving as an advisor to the 883d Regional Force Company, Army of the Republic of Vietnam, during combat operations against an armed enemy in the vicinity of Bong Son, Republic of Vietnam, on June 17-18, 1965.
Neil Thorne, a nationally known research historian, and Jim Moriarty, legal veteran advocate, tell us how Captain Davis, now ranked as Col. Davis, military service records to appeal for the honor were “LOST” 3 times before finally being filed and approved to receive the Medal of Honor.
