and it's likely Stephen Miller bringing these things to his attention. We know he knows NOTHING about military OR history, so he wouldn't know about any of this without a tutor.

William Henry Johnson (circa July 15, 1892 – July 1, 1929), commonly known as Henry Johnson,[2] was a United States Army soldier who performed heroically in the first African American unit of the United States Army to engage in combat in World War I.[3] On watch in the Argonne Forest on May 14, 1918, he fought off a German raid in hand-to-hand combat, killing multiple German soldiers and rescuing a fellow soldier while suffering 21 wounds, in an action that was brought to the nation's attention by coverage in the New York World and The Saturday Evening Post later that year. On June 2, 2015, he was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor by President Barack Obama in a ceremony at the White House.[4]
