This undated photo provided by Linda Hervieux shows Joann Woodson at the grave site of Cpl. Waverly B. Woodson Jr. at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Va. A new push is under way to posthumously award Woodson Jr. the Medal of Honor for his bravery on D-Day. Woodson Jr. was an army medic assigned to the 320th Barrage Balloon Battalion. The battalion’s job was to set up explosive-rigged balloons to deter German planes. At a time when the military was still segregated by race, the balloon battalion was the only African American combat unit to land on Normandy on June 6, 1944. (Linda Hervieux via AP)
