Washington, DC- Congressman Steve King released the following statement last week after honoring Vietnam War Veteran Roger Baldwin with medals he had not formally received for his service. Baldwin served in the Air Force in Vietnam for a year before working on Air Force Bases in Utah, Germany and England. He is now a resident of Sioux City.

“Honoring soldiers like Roger Baldwin is one of the highlights of my job, and I take it very seriously,” said King. “When veterans contact our office because they have not been presented their medals, we make every effort to uncover their awards. Those who have fought for our freedoms deserve our utmost respect and sincere gratitude, and today I was able to present Roger with the awards he earned protecting our country.”

Baldwin was awarded the following medals:

Air Force Outstanding Unit Award
Air Force Good Conduct Medal with two Bronze Oak Leaf Clusters
