Attendees gather at a Special Forces Charitable Trust reception in October 2017 honoring Gary 'Mike' Rose, a Special Forces medic awarded the Medal of Honor for extraordinary heroism during Operation Tailwind, a 1970 MACV-SOG operation in Laos. Rose, seen here in dress uniform wearing the medal, was joined by fellow veterans and organizers celebrating the belated recognition of his valor nearly five decades after the mission. Project: 219447
