Mug with Henry Johnson, WWI Hero from the Harlem Hellfighters, Medal of Honor Winner

Private Henry Johnson, member of Harlem Hellfighters 369th Infantry Regiment was the first American to be awarded the French Croix de Guerre and was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor in 2015 (85 years after his death).

"The French Army assigned Johnson's regiment to Outpost 20 on the edge of the Argonne Forest in the Champagne region of France and equipped them with French rifles and helmets. While on observation post duty on the night of May 14, 1918, Private Johnson came under attack by a large German raiding party, which may have numbered as many as 24 German soldiers. Johnson displayed uncommon heroism when using grenades, the butt of his rifle, a bolo knife, and his bare fists, he repelled the Germans, thereby rescuing Needham Roberts from capture and saving the lives of his fellow soldiers. Johnson suffered 21 wounds during this ordeal. This act of valor earned him the nickname of "Black Death", as a sign of respect for his prowess in combat."
