John James Kedenburg (July 31, 1946 – June 14, 1968) was a United States Army soldier and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration—the Medal of Honor—for his actions in the Vietnam War. ==Biography== Kedenburg joined the Army from his birthplace of Brooklyn, New York in 1965,〔(Service Profile )〕 and by June 13, 1968, was serving as a Specialist Five in the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne), 1st Special Forces. During a fierce firefight on that day, in the Republic of Vietnam/Laos, Kedenburg voluntarily gave the last spot on an extraction helicopter to a South Vietnamese soldier. Ordering the full helicopter to leave, he then continued to engage the enemy alone until being overrun. A road at Fort Bragg, NC is named in his honor. Kedenburg, aged 21 at his death, was buried in Long Island National Cemetery, Farmingdale, New York.
